POVERTY MEAL

Steps:

• 1. In a large deep skillet, heat the vegetable oil. (I used my chicken fryer when preparing this meal.)
• 2. Add the ground beef, and cook until the meat has browned 3/4's of the way.
• 3. Now add the onion and garlic, and finish browning the meat and onion. Drain off any excess grease.
• 4. Season meat and onion with the salt and pepper.
• 5. Now add the stewed tomatoes, the can of water, and the uncooked macaroni. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to almost a simmer. Cook and stir occasionally for 15 to 20 minutes, until the macaroni is cooked through. (Do not cover the skillet while cooking this dish.)
• 6. Once cooked, serve immediately, and sprinkle each serving with the parmesan cheese.
• 7. *Note: If desired, you can substitute Lawry's Seasoned Salt for the table salt, and substitute Lawry's Seasoned Black Pepper for the black pepper.
