So I didn't have any elbow macaroni, cheddar cheese or tomato soup. But I forged on ahead anyway. And I didn't want to have to add time and bake this. So, I used ditalini pasta, and a couple tablespoons of ketchup and made this on the stove top. I added garlic powder, paprika, lots of black pepper, some Italian seasoning, and some Kent Rollins original seasoning. Topped it with some shredded mozz cheese. OMG! It was DEE-LICIOUS! This is a very versatile recipe. I'll make it again. Sorry it wasn't exactly like the recipe states, but we have to use what we have on hand and get creative, right? NICE and like a comfort food.Reply

This was a good way to get rid of the ground beef I had left over. The only thing I did, was top it with a half of lb. of diced bacon browned up. I did add some green onion too. It is like a bacon cheese burger. We did it with some sweet corn on the cob. Thank you for shareing such a wonderful way to use up some hamburger meat...Keep cooking parsley... ; )Reply
