GLORIFIED TOMATO BEEFY MAC'N CHEESE image

I make this often because it is tasty, easy and quick to prepare. I wanted something a little different from the regular Macaroni and Cheese or "Hamburger Helper" type dish, so I visited my pantry and refrigerator and came up with this dish. This, along with a small salad and rolls made a great meal. My lady friends enjoy it....

This was a great recipe! The tomato sauce was flavorful and the beef was cooked perfectly. The macaroni was cooked al dente, just the way I like it. I would definitely make this again.
