Presto Pesto Hamburger Mac
  1. 1

    Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook the elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring now and then, until tender yet slightly firm, about 8 minutes. Drain.

  2. 2

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir the beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard the grease. Stir the pesto and sour cream into the ground beef until warmed through; add the macaroni and mix well.
