Macaroni and Tomatoes
A quick and easy comfort dish featuring macaroni mixed with a tomato sauce and stewed tomatoes.
Ingredients
- macaroni (1 package)
- butter (1 tablespoon)
- bacon grease (1 teaspoon)
- tomato sauce (1 can)
- chopped stewed tomatoes (1 can)
- white sugar (0.5 teaspoon)
- salt (0 )
- ground black pepper (0 )
Instructions
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the macaroni, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
- Pour the macaroni into a saucepan and place over medium heat; stir in the butter, bacon grease, tomato sauce, stewed tomatoes with juice, and sugar; season with salt and pepper. Stir while cooking until butter and bacon grease has melted and incorporated completely, 5 to 10 minutes; remove from heat, cover, and allow to sit about 20 minutes before serving.
