- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and set a pot of water on to boil for the pasta.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the burger and chopped onions, then grind a bunch of black pepper over it.
- Cook until beef is browned and onions are translucent. In the last minute or so, add the minced garlic.
- Drain any grease, if needed.
- When the water is boiling for the pasta, add the macaroni and cook until just before al dente, then drain and set aside.
- It will cook more in the oven. Meanwhile, add the tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, soy sauce, sugar, and herbs to the ground beef and stir to incorporate.
- Or you can be like me and forget the parsley until later.
- Next add the cheddar cheese (or perhaps parsley if you forgot) and mix until cheese is melted.
- Stir in the cooked macaroni until combined.
- Pour into a 2-quart casserole dish sprayed with oil.
- Top with the Mozzarella cheese and bake for 30 minutes.
- Let rest about 5 minutes, then serve with buttered bread, and a salad if you want.
Enjoy!!!!
