How to Make Beef And Macaroni
- Brown the beef: In a large skillet, brown 1 lb ground beef over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess grease.
- Cook the pasta: While the beef browns, cook 1 lb macaroni according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- Sauté the vegetables: Add 1 tbsp olive oil to the skillet. Sauté 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1/2 cup chopped celery, 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper, and 2 cloves minced garlic until softened (about 5 minutes).
- Combine ingredients: Stir in the cooked macaroni, browned beef, 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 1 cup beef bouillon, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 tsp sugar, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Simmer: Bring the mixture to a simmer, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the flavors have melded and the sauce has thickened.
- Serve: Serve immediately. Garnish with a side of shredded American cheese, crusty bread, and a fresh green salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
