• 1 1/2 lb. ground beef
• 1 C. chopped onion
• 1 1 lb. 4 oz. can tomatoes
• 1/2 C. chopped green pepper
• 1 1/2 tsp. salt
• 2 tsp. chili powder
• 1 tsp. paprika
• 1 8 oz. pkg. spaghetti or macaroni, cooked
• 1/4 lb. cheddar cheese, grated

Cook ground beef slowly until crumbly, but not hard. Add onions, tomatoes, green pepper and seasonings. Cover and simmer 45 minutes. Alternate layer of cooked spaghetti or macaroni in a 1 quart greased casserole or baking dish, so the top layer is meat. Sprinkle grated cheese over mixture and bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes or until cheese is melted and lightly browned.
