This is my Mom's recipe. Very easy, very good. I had a successful mail-order business years ago packaging the spices, pasta, cheese and recipe. The veggie measurements are guesstimates as I don't usually measure! I also vary the veggies according to what I have on hand - the only thing I've ever used that didn't work was beets.This also freezes well. Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef |
1 cup onion, chopped |
1 large potato, cubed |
1 cup carrot, sliced |
16 ounces corn, drained |
1/2 cup celery, sliced |
1 1/2 cups cabbage, chopped |
28 ounces diced tomatoes with juice |
56 ounces water |
8 ounces tomato sauce |
4 teaspoons salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1 teaspoon basil |
1 teaspoon thyme |
3/4 cup acini di pepe pasta |
parmesan cheese, grated |
Directions:
1. Boil pasta according to package directions, drain.
2. Brown ground beef and onion.
3. Add potato, carrot, corn, celery, cabbage, tomatoes, water, tomato sauce, salt, pepper, basil and thyme.
4. Bring to boil, lower heat and simmer 1 hour or more.
5. Add pasta.
6. Serve with fresh grated cheese.
7. Better the next day, so make ahead if you can.
