This is my old family farm recipe.
I put together in the 50's !
YEP! Row crops,soy beans and corn.
All the ingredients are cooked then put together, during the day.
Put in the oven (covered) on low till dinner time. Served with a salad and Italian bread....you have a wonderful, and satisfying meal.
On the farm this saved a lot of time..to have dinner prepared and ready to eat...after chores were done. Never had any leftovers!!
But would freeze very well.
I made this this week and shared with my neighbors. They asked me to make it again...SOON!!

and a splash of oil, stir and cook till done.
ADD cooked vegetables to meat mixture, also the cooked macaroni. Salt and peppr to taste.
ADD one quart of your favorite pasta sauce.
Mix well,and put in a casserole dish (covered) in the oven on low.
Check occasionally , you may have to add a little water....When YOU, are ready to eat...it is ready. ENJOY!
If you like to fancy it up a bit...like company coming???
A can of chopped black olives along with a can of diced tomatoes makes a purty presentation!!
Also a can of grated cheese on the table.
