Notes
If you don’t have an Instant Pot, you can make this chili mac recipe on the stovetop. Simply cook the ground beef and onion in a large pot over medium heat until the beef is no longer pink. Add the garlic and cook for another minute. Then, add the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the macaroni is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Serve with your desired toppings.

Recipe Tips
This chili mac recipe is a great way to use up any leftover ground beef you may have. You can also substitute the ground beef with ground turkey or pork, if desired. Additionally, feel free to switch up the beans used in the recipe; black beans work great, but you can also use pinto beans or red kidney beans. Finally, if you prefer a spicier chili mac, feel free to add some hot sauce or diced jalapeños to the dish. Enjoy!
