Macaroni and tomatoes

Eatin’ Good in The ozarks!

This is how my mom (Mamaw Judy) and my mother in law (Mamaw Myers) made them . It’s one of my husband’s favorites.

1 cup elbow macaroni
I pint home canned tomatoes or 1 regular size can of diced tomatoes .
Salt/pepper to taste
1 T sugar or natural sweetener

Bring salted water to a boil and add the macaroni, cook for 8 minutes . Drain and put back into pot. Add the tomatoes and juices, salt, pepper and sugar. Simmer for a few minutes stirring occasionally.

Jesus is the way, the truth and the Life.

EATIN’ GOOD IN THE OZARKS!
Chili Macaroni Goulash! One pot meal, no need to precook the macaroni. So quick and easy, no need for the boxed dinners.

Jesus is the Only way, the truth and the life!

Chill Macaroni Goulash
1 Pound ground beef
1 Cup chopped onions
1 can kidney beans (15 1/2 oz)
1 can diced tomatoes (28 oz)
1 can tomato sauce (8 oz)
1 cup chopped green peppers (optional)
1 cup uncooked elbow macaroni
2-4 tsp. Chili powder
1 tsp. Salt
1/8 tsp. cayenne red pepper (optional)
1/8 tsp. Paprika (optional)
 Cook and stir meat and onions together in a large skillet or Dutch oven until meat is brown. Drain off fat. Stir in kidney beans with liquid, tomatoes with liquid and remaining ingredients. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat; cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until macaroni is tender, 20 to 30 minutes. Note: I usually leave out the green peppers and cayenne pepper and use the 4 tsp. of chili powder. You can break up the tomatoes if you prefer. This makes a good family meal paired with green beans and a salad. Yummy! (Vicki)

Please pray for Charlie Kirk’s family. He was assassinated for his faith and political views. He is a martyr for his Christian faith. He was a very wise man trying to spread the truth in an evil world.

Verse for today and praying blessings to all of you on this Lord ‘s Day.

Last night I had an old favorite that I had not had for a long time. I make a grilled cheese by spreading mayo on one of the slices of bread then add the cheese. I add the other slice of bread on top. Then I spread butter on the outside top and bottom of the sandwich. I toast it in the skillet. When done I quickly take off the mayo side and place the lettuce, tomato and dill pickle slices on it. The key is to open the sandwich while still very hot. I love it with just the dill slices also. Simple but very tasty. I made mine on low carb bread. 💜Vicki
