Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoon olive oil⁣⁣⁣⁣
  • 1 brown onion
  • 250 g mushrooms
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 500 g beef mince
  • 295 g condensed mushroom soup⁣⁣⁣⁣ I use Campbells
  • 295 g condensed tomato soup⁣⁣⁣⁣ I use Campbells
  • 150 g cheddar cheese extra mature
  • 360 g pasta fusilli
  • parmesan optional topping to serve
  • fresh parsley optional garnish

Instructions
 

  • Slice 250 g mushrooms and chop 1 brown onion - add to a pan with 2 tablespoon olive oil⁣⁣⁣⁣ and begin to soften (approx 10 minutes)
  • Finely chop 2 garlic cloves and add to pan after mushrooms and onions are soft, cook for 2 minutes
  • Add 500 g beef mince, break up with a wooden spoon and allow to brown off (5 minutes)
  • Open cans of 295 g condensed mushroom soup⁣⁣⁣⁣ and 295 g condensed tomato soup⁣⁣⁣⁣ and add to pan to simmer on low for 10 minutes
  • Grate 150 g cheddar cheese, then add grated cheese to pan and simmer on low until all cheese has melted
  • Cook 360 g pasta in salted water until al dente, drain, and add to pan with sauce
  • Season further as desired and serve topped with parmesan and fresh chopped parsley

Notes

I personally believe the hob method is slightly tastier (as you can brown off the beef, which adds flavour).
But if you're short on time then you can try the Slow Cooker Method below: 
  1. Add beef mince, onion, mushrooms, garlic, soup tins and tins rinsed out with water to the slow cooker
  2. Stir to combine and cook on HIGH for 2-3 hours or LOW for 7-8 hours 
  3. Remove the lid, stir, and cook for another 30-60 mins on HIGH (this will help to thicken the sauce) 
  4. Add grated cheese and cooked pasta then serve with some fresh parsley and parmesan to garnish (optional)
