- In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
- Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté until the onion is translucent and fragrant, around 3-4 minutes.

- Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 12-15 minutes, or until the macaroni is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid.
