Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup diced onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound ground chuck
1 tablespoon Miss Brown's House Seasoning, recipe follows
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 1/2 cups beef stock
8 ounces elbow pasta, cooked according to package directions
