Heat large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot. Add Ground Beef; cook 8 to 10 minutes, breaking into 3/4-inch crumbles and stirring occasionally. Cook's Tip: Cooking times are for fresh or thoroughly thawed ground beef. Ground beef should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F. Color is not a reliable indicator of ground beef doneness.
Stir in water and macaroni; bring to a boil. Reduce heat , cover and simmer 9 to 11 minutes or until macaroni is tender.
Stir in cheese cubes. Cook 1 to 2 minutes or until heated through, stirring occasionally.
Season with salt and pepper, as desired. Serve beef mixture topped with pickle slices, if desired.
