Here's a simple and tasty version of the "Johnny Marzetti" casserole that incorporates baked beans along with macaroni, cheese, ground beef and tomatoes. We made one substitution and one addition: plain diced tomatoes with 1/2 tsp. dried Italian seasoning instead of Italian-style diced tomatoes, and one chopped medium onion. Strangely, the tomato juice did not make the dish too juicy. A real crowd-pleaser and so easy!
