Hello, everyone.
I am wishing you, the very best day for today and always.
This little recipe comes from my childhood memories. I am still, hooked on it, today! It just seems to get better each time that you make it.
I would usually use macaroni or penne pasta but I was out of it so I used the bow-tie pasta.
So, here is my little comfort recipe that I hope that you will try and also share the recipe with your friends.
2 lbs hamburger meat
1 tsp garlic powder and 4 cloves garlic chopped finely
1 tsp salt and 1 tsp black pepper
1 large onion chopped medium
2 cans of diced tomatoes
1 can of tomato sauce ( 15 oz can).
1 small can of tomato paste with 3 cans of water.
1- lb box of noodles. (I prefer penne). But used bowties.
Fry hamburger meat half-way done and then drain grease off. Start frying again and add in onion and garlic cloves along with all the spices.
Have a big pot of boiling water ready for your pasta noodles and boil them for 8 minutes and drain off the water. Keep in covered container to keep warm.
Back to the hamburger meat. Add in the tomato sauce along with paste and 3 paste cans of warm water. Add the 2 cans of diced tomatoes in. Simmer on medium for 20 minutes and then put all the pasta that will fit into the meat and sauce pot and stir it in well.
All of the pasta will not fit. So keep some for mac and cheese another day. Turn heat down to low #5 and simmer for 30 minutes, covered with a lid or you will have a messed up stove-top, like in my photo.
Next step is to throw some old bread or buns under the broiler with softened butter and garlic cloves minced, with garlic powder in it and a little salt, spread on top of the buns and broil until lightly browned. You could add some shredded cheese also.
Have a glass of sweet tea to go with this and you are ready for a nice meal. Thank you for your visit and please do stay awhile and check out some more recipes as I have quite a few on here. Come back soon as I post on Saturday and Tuesday.
