Spazzy Spag Bowl


On top is spag bowl; bottom is the mystery macaroni referenced in the cous-cous recipe


This is a really quick recipe, and it's spazzy because you'd have to be a total spaz to mess it up. Do not make it the English way and use Heinz Ketchup instead of canned tomatoes; that requires a lot of beer to be enjoyable.

Ingredients:
Small onion
2 cloves garlic
1 lb ground meat
14 oz can tomatoes
Cooked Pasta

Dice up onion and sautee in frying pan over med-hi heat. Add minced garlic and meat. Cook meat until still pink-ish but not red. Add tomatoes, bring to boil and reduce heat and simmer for 10mins or so until liquid is reduced. Serve over pasta, or if you're on a diet, cook half a spaghetti squash and use instead. Feel free to skip even the onion part of it and use onion powder or Adobe salt instead. Add herbs if you're feeling fancy, or red wine if you're feeling boozy and fancy. Just don't leave the plate where the dog can reach it while you're out of the room! Serves about 3 people, or 2 people plus left-overs.
