poverty meal
(1 rating)
This is a quick, cheap, easy meal to prepare, plus it's also very good! I especially enjoyed this topped with grated parmesan cheese. You can serve it without the cheese, then it reminds me of Goulash. I came across this recipe back in 2009 at Recipezaar, which Malriha originally posted the recipe. This is a very popular recipe, as it already has over 500 reviews.

How To Make poverty meal
-
1In a large deep skillet, heat the vegetable oil. (I used my chicken fryer when preparing this meal.)
-
2Add the ground beef, and cook until the meat has browned 3/4's of the way.
-
3Now add the onion and garlic, and finish browning the meat and onion. Drain off any excess grease.
-
4Season meat and onion with the salt and pepper.
-
5Now add the stewed tomatoes, the can of water, and the uncooked macaroni. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to almost a simmer. Cook and stir occasionally for 15 to 20 minutes, until the macaroni is cooked through. (Do not cover the skillet while cooking this dish.)
-
6Once cooked, serve immediately, and sprinkle each serving with the parmesan cheese.
-
7*Note: If desired, you can substitute Lawry's Seasoned Salt for the table salt, and substitute Lawry's Seasoned Black Pepper for the black pepper.
