My mom often made this casserole when I was growing up, and it was one of my favorite meals. It tastes terrific with a salad and rolls.
This is an easy macaroni and ground beef casserole recipe, and it makes a great-tasting dinner for any night of the week. Add a tossed salad and warm rolls or crusty bread for a perfect meal. We used our favorite arrabbiata sauce in this recipe, but any good marinara or tomato sauce will work.
