I did a bunch of prep for this coming weeks dinners. I cut up veggies, cooked protein (beef), put a roast in the fridge to de-frost, and made lunch for both DH and I tomorrow.
Tonight I made a family favorite:
Aunt Linda’s Mess
She’s not my Aunt, she’s my mom’s aunt, and this dish is a Minnesotan favorite. This is a typical hotdish from the Midwest. It’s freaking heavenly.
1 lb ground beef
1 package macaroni (any kind you like)- I used Whole Wheat Spaghetti instead.
1 can Cream of Mushroom soup
1 can water
1 teaspoon dehydated onions (I used more this time- YUM)
½ cup cheese (cheddar is preferred)- You can use more cheese too if you like I always do!
1 small tub sour cream (NOT IMO)
Brown and crumble meat, drain fat. Add onions, soup, water, macaroni (uncooked). Stir to combine and cook over low/medium heat in a skillet (or an electric skillet). Cook until macaroni is al dente, add more water if needed. Add cheese, stir to combine. Remove from heat and add sour cream. Serve right away.
We had it with homemade coleslaw, homemade apple sauce, and corn on the cob.
And there was enough leftover for my lunch tomorrow and Thursday night dinner!
