In a large saute pan, over medium heat add the ground beef, onions, and red pepper. Saute until meat no longer pink, about 5 minutes.
Stir in garlic to release its flavors. Drain and discard excess fat from the pan.
Stir in chili beans with the sauce, fire roasted diced tomatoes, pasta, beef broth, water, cumin, chili powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat, turn heat to a low simmer. Cover pot with a lid. Let simmer about 12-15 minutes. Pasta will be tender and meat will be tender.
Sprinkle top with cheddar cheese.
Serve with your fvorite garnishes.
