Beefy Tomato Fettuccine

Sorry I have been MIA.  We have had a couple of really busy weeks and I've had a hard time just keeping up with that.

Anyway, got a new recipe to add.  I thought this was delicious, but this kind of thing is just right up my alley!!  :)


2 lb ground beef
1 large onion, chopped
4 14oz cans diced tomatoes
2 tsp parsley
2 tbs sugar
2 tsp salt
1 box fettuccine, cooked according to directions
2 cups mozzarella cheese

1.  Brown ground beef with onion in a large saucepan until no pink remains. (I used a food processor and mince the tomatoes too cause my family doesn't like the chunks.)  Add tomatoes, parsley, sugar and salt to pan and stir to combine.

2.  To Serve:  Combine 1/2 of the sauce mix with the cooked fettuccine noodles.  Then pour in a 9x13 baking dish and top with cheese.  Insert into preheated oven at 350 degrees, and bake until cheese is melted.

3.  To Freeze:  Let sauce cool, and pour into a gallon sized freezer bag.  Label with name date and cooking instructions. 

Reheat instructions:  Thaw sauce overnight.  Preheat oven to 350F while cooking the fettuccine noodles. Also heat sauce in a saucepan while cooking noodles.  Combine noodles with sauce and place in a 9x13 baking dish, top with mozz cheese and bake until cheese melts.
