1 Pound ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped (about 1/2 cup)
1 package Hamburger Helper mix for lasagna
5 cups water
1 can (16 oz.) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can corn
1 small zucchini, chopped, (about 1 cup)
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Cook ground beef and onion in 4 quart stock pot or Dutch oven, stirring
frequently, until beef is brown. Drain. Stir in Sauce Mix, water, tomatoes,
and corn. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly; reduce heat. Cover and
simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in Noodles and Zucchini.
Cover and cook 10 minutes longer. Sprinkle each serving with grated Parmesan
cheese (if desired.)
*Substitute green beans, spinach or other greens for zucchini depending on
what is available and who is eating it. Add yellow squash or garbanzo beans
for a slightly different taste.
