Inspired from Apple Kitchen cook book, Demetria Taylor, 1966. Has applesauce in it; really good.
Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
1 egg
4 slices bread
1/4 cup onion, minced
1 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup bell pepper, minced (optional)
2 cups elbow macaroni, cooked
1 teaspoon pepper
Directions:
1. Mix ground beef, egg, bread, onion, pepper, and applesauce together.
2. Make 15 balls; place balls in a casserole dish.
3. Bake at 350 degrees Fahreneheit for 15 minutes; drain fat.
4. Mix ketchup, water.
5. Add ketchup/water mixture over the bell pepper; this step wasn't in original recipe but I like it this way.
6. Bake 30 minutes more.
7. Add pepper to cooked macaroni as soon as drained. I can't have butter but you can add some if you wish.
