Beef and Macaroni Bake
8-oz pkg elbow macaroni or small shells, cooked, drained
2 tbs olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
3 ribs celery, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
3 medium cloves garlic, minced
1 lb ground beef
2 tsp Cajun seasoning
2 14.5 oz tomatoes, undrained, diced
2 tbs tomato paste
1/2 tsp salt, or to taste
1/8 tsp black pepper, or to taste
2 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
Heat olive oil in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium heat.Add onion, celery, green and red pepper, and garlic. Continue to sauté the vegetables, stirring frequently, until the chopped onion is tender. Add ground beef and continue cooking, stirring, until beef is browned.
Stir in the cooked and drained macaroni and 2 cups of the shredded cheese, along with salt and pepper, as desired. Transfer to a lightly greased 13×9-inch baking pan. Cover with foil.
At this point, the casserole may be refrigerated for a few hours or overnight. Bake the covered casserole in a 350° oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until hot and bubbly (if it is cold from the refrigerator, it may take longer). Top with the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese and cook, uncovered, for 5 to 10 minutes longer.
Serves 6 to 8.

The recipe/article/etc will show up on a formatted page. Please Note, although the page is pink and green the background colors should not print unless you have your browser SET to Print backgrounds.

This will save you a tremendous amount of ink when printing recipes, etc.
