Beef & Roni

Another quick, inexpensive dinner made mostly with what you have on hand. I usually always have these ingredients in my freezer or in my pantry. I love this because it doesn't keep me in the kitchen all night during the week.

• Ready In: 35 mins
• Serves: 5-6

Ingredients

• 1  lb lean ground beef
• 1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes
• 1⁄2 cup onion (chopped)
• 2  garlic cloves (minced)
• 8  ounces tomato sauce (1/2 can)
• 3⁄4 cup parmesan cheese (more if you like cheese like we do)
• 2 1⁄2 cups elbow macaroni (dried)

Directions

1. Sauté onion & garlic on medium heat for 5 minutes. Turn heat up to medium high & add beef. Cook until no pink remains.
2. Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, & parmesan cheese and lower heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
3. Cook macaroni while beef mixture is simmering. Drain and combine macaroni & beef mixture together. Let sit for a few minutes.
