Brown ground meat. Either drain off some of the fat or leave it; doesn't matter. Stir in hot water, tomato sauce, cream (or cream and water mixture), and seasonings (NOT xanthan gum!).
Simmer on low for five to ten minutes. Add xanthan gum (if you don't know how to do this properly, do yourself a favor and google it, as it's different from corn starch or flour thickening). Add cheeses. Cook for a couple of minutes more.
Done!
