Cheeseburger Pasta

I can't believe how long it has been since I've cooked something new!  This winter, I just didn't feel like cooking cause I really didn't want to go outside and get groceries!  But I've been pinning like a madwoman, and this here is one of the recipes I found!  Yummy!

Cheeseburger Pasta

Ingredients:
~1 pound of pasta, cooked (penne or similar...I used rotini)
~1 pound of ground beef
~3/4 cup milk
~1/2 tsp garlic powder
~2 cups of cheddar cheese
~1 tsp of pepper
~1/2 tsp of salt
~1/4 cup parmesan cheese

Directions:
1) Brown beef in a medium size skillet ~ Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder; drain
2) In a medium sauce pan- over medium-low heat- add milk and cheese.  Mix until cheese is melted.  Add parmesan cheese and mix
3) Add cheese sauce to beef and mix
4) Add cooked pasta to to skillet and mix well
5) Dig In!

This recipe serves 4, but I have 5 people with big appetites in my family, so I added a bit more pasta as filler and a couple scoops of Cheez Whiz to thicken the sauce up.
