American Chop Suey

• 1 lb hamburger
• 2 28 oz cans whole tomatoes
• 1 lg onion, chopped
• 1-2 Tb. oil
• garlic salt
• onion powder
• salt & pepper
• 1 lb spaghetti or angel hair

In a tablespoon or two of oil, brown the onions. Add the hamburger and brown. I typically sprinkle the garlic salt & onion powder over the meat/onion mixture, enough to coat without drowning.

Once the hamburger is cooked through, hand crush the tomatoes and add the juice to the pot. Add 1-1/2 - 2 cans of water. Again sprinkle the garlic salt & onion powder across the pot, add salt & pepper. Simmer while the spaghetti cooks. The longer you simmer, the better.

An alternative to this is to use crushed tomatoes. This makes the sauce thicker and works with both spaghetti & macaroni. Yum!
