Ingredients:
1 box of 3 cheese Kraft Mac and Cheese
1 box of original Kraft Mac and Cheese
2 Tbs. butter
1/4-1/3 c. milk (depending on your preference in consistency)
1 lb. ground beef
1 packet of  Taco seasoning
salt and pepper for taste
Shredded Colby/Monterey Jack cheese

Cook the noodles according to the package. While the noodles are cooking, get a medium sized skillet out, and set to medium heat. Add the raw ground beef to the pan. While the meat is cooking use a fork to break up the large clumps into smaller pieces. When the meat is fully cooked, drain in a strainer to get rid of all of the fatty liquid. Add the meat back to the pan. Add the Taco seasoning to the meat. Fill the empty seasoning packet 1/3 of the way with water, and also add to the meat. Stir everything together until it is well combined. When the noodles are done, strain the liquid. Add the noodles back to the pot. Add your butter, milk and cheese seasoning packets to the noodles and stir until everything is combined. Stir in your Taco meat with the Mac and Cheese. Add salt and pepper for seasoning. Top with some yummy shredded cheese!
