I'm not sure where I got this recipe, but it's super simply, and super tasty! Especially if you like foods with a Mexican/Latin flair. Even my husband likes this, even though I have to serve out his portion, before I add the wee bit of sour cream, but still, he likes it. I hope you'll give it a try as well.
Easy Mexican Skillet
1 lb. ground beef (I usually use ground round or sirloin: less fat)
1/4 c. chopped onion
1/2 c. chopped green bell pepper
1-16oz. can diced tomatoes (Ro-Tel can be used for added spice)
1-8oz. can tomato sauce
dash of salt
1 T. sugar
1 tsp. chili powder (I use 1/2 chili powder-1/2 ground cumin)
1 c. uncooked macaroni (can use any pasta you have on hand)
1/2 c. sour cream
Brown ground beef, onions, & peppers; drain off fat. Add remaining ingredients, except sour cream. Bring to a boil. Cover & reduce heat, simmer for 20 minutes. Stir in sour cream, & serve.
Serves: 4
Notes: This recipe can easily be doubled to serve larger families or dinner guests. You could also add more heat to this recipe by adding some chopped jalapeno pepper. I usually serve this dish with a nice side salad, & some crusty bread or rolls.
