My Dad's Ultimate Macaroni and Tomatoes
- Ready In:
- 30mins
- Ingredients:
- 10
- Serves:
-
4-6
ingredients
- 2 cups macaroni (I prefer whole wheat)
- 1 (28 ounce) can stewed tomatoes (I use whole and chop them myself)
- 1 (10 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 lb ground turkey (though my Dad uses beef)
- 1 -3 garlic clove, minced
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1⁄4 - 1⁄2 teaspoon sage
- 1⁄4 - 1⁄2 teaspoon summer savory (the staple of east coast cooking!)
- 1⁄4 - 1⁄2 teaspoon thyme
- salt and pepper
directions
- Cook macaroni according to directions, drain and set aside.
- While macaroni is cooking, saute the onion and garlic in oil, then add ground meat and cook until done.
- Combine macaroni with the mushroom soup, mixing well.
- Add meat mixture and herbs, and then chopped tomatoes. Mix well.
- I usually heat the macaroni and tomatoes until just warm, as I find it cools a bit while I get everything finished and mixed together, but that is up to you.
- I should also add that I tend to enjoy a fair bit of herbs/spices in my food, so when you first try this, you may want to use the smaller amount.

I thought this sounded good and I love tomatoes and Macaroni together. So, I tried it. I did leave out the "summer savory" because we aren't fond of mint flavoring in cooking. I also used only 1/4 tsp of sage. I added a rib of celery sliced and chopped green pepper. YUM> Thanks so much for sharing this recipe with us!!!
