Threw these ingredients together tonight and everybody in the family liked it. Maybe it should be called Hamburger Miracle!
Here's what you need:
2 cups elbow macaroni (measure uncooked)
1-2 lbs lean ground beef
1 can tomato soup (I use store brand)
1/2 can water
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 tsp salt or to taste
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 to 1/2 tsp dried oregano
Boil water to begin cooking macaroni in a 2 qt saucepan according to package directions. It generally takes about 10-11 minutes for pasta to cook, so while that's cooking, brown ground beef in frying pan. Drain off any grease. Add can of tomato soup then water, salt, pepper, and oregano. Stir until heated through.
When the macaroni is done, drain it using colander. Return macaroni to saucepan. Pour sauce mixure into macaroni. Mix. Add in 1 cup of mozzarella cheese.
If you don't care for a lot of cheese, you could leave it out completely or just sprinkle a little on top.

Sounds so good. I'm big into hamburger helper (I confess) so this will be a much healthier alternative- and still fast.
