ingredients
- 8 ounces elbo macaroni, dry then cooked al dente and drained
- 1 lb cheddar cheese, grated
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 lb ground beef
- 15 ounces whole tomatoes, canned (diced if you wish)
- salt
- pepper
directions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Cook the elbo al dente macaroni and drain.
- Saute the onions in the oil. Add the ground beef and brown it. Set aside.
- Put the tomatoes in the hot pan and add the macaroni. Cook just enough for a good amount of the liquid to be absorbed by the macaroni.
- Mother used a big, deep pyrex bowl, so she could mix everything in it and the pop it in the over -- if you don't have that then mix in a bowl.
- Mix elbos, onion, ground beef, tomatoes and half of the cheese. Salt and pepper to taste. Place in the pan in which you will bake it.
- Top with the rest of the cheese (remember everything is already cooked) and cook until it bubbles and the cheese on top is yummy.

As I am in South Florida, I have many edible fruits and perennial veggies in my yard. So, I like to cook with them.
