[recipe-directions]
In a large skillet, season the beef with the onion, garlic and seasoning salt, then brown the ground beef. Once the beef is cooked, drain the excess grease. Add in the beef broth and bring to a simmer. Add in the pepper, paprika and Cajun seasonings and the macaroni and stir. Simmer for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender. Add in the milk and stir. Add in the cheeses in batches and stir until melted. Serve immediately.
