My grandmother's basic recipe:

1lb ground beef

1 medium onion, diced

1 8oz can tomato paste

1 14.5oz can stewed tomatoes (chopped into smaller pieces)

1 box macaroni (1lb)

1 tbsp butter/margarine

Salt/Pepper/Italian spices to taste

Brown ground beef and onions, add tomato paste, stewed tomatoes, seasoning, butter and simmer. Cook macaroni according to box directions and mix with beef/tomato mixture.

These days, I usually add minced garlic/peppers/mushrooms and a couple different types of onion. Top with mozzarella and/or fresh parm.

This one should be top. Paste and stewed tomatoes, not soup

I've done variations cooking the pasta in the beef suey, and other times pre-cooking. the one time I was impatient and did it pretty al dente, it came out just right.
