Family Skillet Meal - Updated, with Photo

For supper the other day, we thoroughly enjoyed this super-easy dish! Although we had it with a slice of bread on the side, it would be great with a salad and rolls or crispy, warm garlic bread.

• 1/2 lb. ground beef [I used 1 pound lean]
  
• 2 1/2 c. canned tomatoes [I used diced tomatoes]
  
• 1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
• 1 1/2 c. chopped cabbage [I used some frozen corn]
  
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 1 c. uncooked macaroni
• 1/2 c. grated cheese [I used cheddar]
  
• 1 tsp. salt [I used only a dash]
  

-Brown ground beef and onion.
-Blend Worcestershire sauce and salt into tomatoes.
-Add frozen corn and macaroni to meat in skillet.
-Cover and reduce heat. Simmer 15 to 30 minutes.
-Sprinkle cheese over top.




We enjoyed this so much that I made it again today :o)

I did it from memory [NOT necessarily a good thing] and forgot to add Worcestershire sauce and a dash of salt and it didn't matter at all to the taste!

This time I also added some chopped green peppers and sliced fresh mushrooms.

Simply because my skillet is too cumbersome to drain the cooked ground beef, I browned the meat, onions, green peppers and mushrooms on the stove before transfering them to the heated skillet.

I enjoy new recipes just like everyone else and photos always help me visualize what I'm going to make, so I did remember to take the photo on the left showing it when it first begins to simmer and is basically liquid and uncooked noodles, etc.

We sat down to supper and were enjoying it BEFORE I remembered to take an *after* photo ~ so here's a shot of what a partially empty skillet looks like :o)

I guess that tells you that it was delicious!
