2 cups cooked macaroni
3/4 cup cheddar cheese, grated
1 1/2 lbs ground beef (or combination of ground meat)

pepper
2 tablespoons oil (for frying)

Preparation

Heat oil in skillet and brown the ground beef with the chopped onion.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Grease or spray oil in an oven proof casserole dish. Add the cooked macaroni and meat/onion mixture.
Whisk together milk and eggs; add the nutmeg and about half of the cheese. Pour this mixture over the macaroni and meat in the casserole.
