I made this last night and it was absolutely amazing! It’s a hearty, cheesy baked casserole with seasoned ground beef, tomatoes, corn, pasta, and a flavorful chili sauce. It’s the kind of comforting dish that tastes even better the next day.
The recipe circulating online is generally presented as a copycat LongHorn-style Chili Mac, rather than a confirmed official restaurant recipe.
