An easy school version of Johnny Marzetti. To freeze, don't add the cheese or bake ahead of time. Use your choice of elbow or egg noodles. Ingredients:
8 ounces pasta |
1 pound lean ground beef |
1 cup chopped onion |
2 cups chopped celery |
salt and ground black pepper to taste |
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed tomato soup |
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce |
1 cup water |
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese |
Directions:
1. In a large pot with boiling salted water cook pasta until al dente. Drain.
2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet cook ground beef until no pink remains. Add onions and celery and cook until they are softened. Add salt and pepper to taste. Stir in tomato soup, tomato sauce, and water. Simmer for 10 minutes.
3. In a casserole dish, mix together the cooked and drained pasta with the meat mixture.
4. Bake in a preheated 350 degree F (175 degree C) oven for 20 to 30 minutes. Sprinkle the top with grated Cheddar cheese and continue to cook until cheese is melted, about 3 to 5 minutes.
