  3. Stir in 1/2 cup red wine (or apple cider vinegar) and 1 (28 ounce) can of crushed tomatoes. Add 1 (15 ounce) can of tomato puree and 1 cup of chopped carrots. Bring to a simmer and cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste).
  5. While the sauce simmers, cook 1 cup elbow macaroni according to package directions until al dente. Drain well.
  6. Add the cooked macaroni and browned ground beef to the tomato mixture. Stir in 4 cups of beef broth. Simmer for 15 minutes, or until heated through and flavors have melded.
