I loved the cheesey goodness and taste of this simple dish.
I slightly adapted a recipe I found on the side of a box of elbow macaroni.
And it's fixed on top of the stove...no oven needed.

In same pot, brown ground beef and onion; stirring until no pink remains. Add chili powder, then tomatoes, tomato paste and water. Cook 2 - 3 minutes to blend flavors; add beans; heat through. Season with salt & pepper.
Remove pot from stove; toss pasta into beef mixture; stir.
