    1 minute
  3. Add diced tomatoes, beef broth and pasta, stirring to submerge.

  4. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer 12 minutes until pasta is tender, stirring occasionally.

    12 minutes
  5. Remove from heat and stir in cheddar until melted and creamy.

  6. Top with cilantro and serve straight from the pot.

Chef's tip

Take the pot off the heat before adding the cheese so it melts into a silky sauce instead of turning grainy or stringy.

Suggested pairing

A zesty Mexican lager with a squeeze of lime is a natural match.
