Quick Beef & Pasta One-Pot-Wonder

Ingredients

1 lb ground beef
1 large onion, chopped very fine
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
1 small can (15 oz) tomato paste
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper to taste
2 cups dry small pasta, e.g cork screw or elbow macaroni

Preparation

Brown ground beef in a large pot (no oil is needed). Once the meat is brown add the onion and continue cooking it. Cook over medium heat until soft (about 5 min).
Add garlic, tomatoes, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper to the beef mixture. Take the can that the tomato paste came in, fill it twice with water and add the water to the meat mixture. Reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes.

While the beef mixture cooks, boil the pasta al dente, drain.

Add the macaroni to the beef mixture and stir well.

Those who don't keep kosher can serve it sprinkled with a little bit of cheese.
