Spanish Noodles and Ground Beef

Flavorful
Description

Bacon adds flavor to this comforting stovetop supper my mom frequently made when we were growing up. Now I prepare it for my family.

Ingredients
  • 1/2 pound lean ground beef (90% lean)
  • 1/4 cup chopped green pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped onion
  • 1-1/2 cups uncooked medium egg noodles
  • 3/4 cup canned diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons chili sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • dash pepper
  • 2 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
Directions
  1. In a large skillet, cook and crumble beef with green pepper and onion over medium-high heat until no longer pink, 4-6 minutes. Stir in all remaining ingredients except bacon; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until noodles are tender, 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Top with bacon.
