F3 23/50 In the Kitchen

I'm always on the hunt for a recipe for good ole comfort food. I came across a recipe on Paula Deens website for Beef Macaroni and Cheese. I looked at some of the comments posted, and noticed that the original recipe could feed an army -- and another thought it was a little bland.

Sooooooooooo -- I decided to try it but make a few changes. I cut the recipe in half and added a few more ingredients.   It's a simple and quick recipe.  As a matter of fact, you can make this the night before, and throw it in your fridge to bake the next day.

 

Cook the macaroni according to package directions

Brown the hamburger in bacon drippings

  

Saute onions and green bell pepper till tender

Add the garlic, heat for 30 seconds

Add crushed tomatoes, herbs and seasonings

Combine the hamburger, noodles and cheese in a large bowl, fold into a greased baking dish, top with remaining cheddar cheese

annnnndddd -- Voila -- comfort food!

If you're into a no fuss, make your tummy happy entree, give this a shot.

Have a great Wednesday!
