Instructions

1. Cook 2 cups of raw elbow macaroni until it is only half done.
2. Brown 1 to 1 1/2 # ground beef with 1 medium or large chopped onion. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Combine the partially cooked macaroni, 1 quart canned whole or chopped tomatoes, 1 small can tomato sauce, cooked ground beef and onions, 1 to 2 stalks chopped celery and additional tomato juice as desired.
4. Heat all together on stove until the macaroni is done.
5. Sometimes I put all in a baking dish or casserole dish, top with cheddar cheese and bake in the oven at 350 degrees until the dish is hot and the cheese is melted and slightly browned (about 30 minutes).
