Macaroni...Pizza Style

1 pound lean ground beef

1/4 cup onion...chopped

2 15 ounce cans tomato sauce

1 package macaroni (12 ounces)

1/2 cup water

1 teaspoon basil

1 tablespoon garlic salt

1/2 teaspoon oregano

12 ounces Mozzarella cheese and/or Cheddar cheese (just so it's about 12 ounces total)

Choose your own pizza toppings....such as:

sausage...bacon...olives...mushrooms...pepperoni...green pepper...OR use your imagination to personalize it! Smile

Brown beef with onion til meat is cooked and crumbly. Drain. Cook macaroni then drain. Grate cheese. In a large bowl, mix together the cooked beef with onion, the cooked macaroni, 1 1/2 cans tomato sauce, water and seasonings. Mix well. Pour into a 9x13 inch pan. Top with cheese and your choice of toppings. Pour the remaining tomato sauce on top. Bake at 375* for 15-20 minutes. Just be sure to remove it when it's bubbly. If you cook it TOO long it has a tendency to dry out...Just keep an eye on it after 15 minutes.
