Instructions
Brown and crumble ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat until meat is no longer pink. Drain if necessary.
Add 2 cups water, the seasoning from the box, pasta, black beans, tomatoes and taco seasoning. Stir and bring to a boil. Reduce heat.

Top individual portions with sour cream, sliced tomatoes and cilantro, if desired.
Notes
You can customize this to your liking by using different flavors of macaroni or tomatoes without chiles.
