Chili Mac Stew Recipe Created by Ruth Paget

Chili Mac Stew Recipe Created by Ruth Paget

This stew makes excellent use of ground beef with a little fat in it.  I ate this all the time when I was a teen in Detroit (Michigan) after ice skating at Hart Plaza on the riverfront by the Renaissance Center.

Serves 4

-1 pound hamburger meat
-1 large chopped onion
-1 (12-ounce) can tomato sauce or tomato soup
-1 (12-ounce) can pinto beans
-1 (12-ounce) can diced tomatoes with green pepper
-1 (14.5-ounce) can drained corn
-2 cups water
-1 cup cooked macaroni pasta (Muellers is great for this dish)
-1 cup shredded Colby cheese

Steps:

1-Brown hamburger meat with onions.  No pink should remain in the hamburger meat.

2-Add tomato sauce pinto beans, diced tomatoes with green peppers, drained corn, and water.

3-Mix stew and heat for 30 minutes.

4-Add cooked macaroni pasta and heat for 5 minutes more.  Serve in individual bowls with grate cheese on top.

I use Monterey Jack instead of Colby now that I live in Monterey County California.
