American Chop Suey


American Chop Suey is a quick and easy Keil household favorite. While living in Canada, my roommates loved when I made it because I always had leftovers to share.



Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground meat (beef or turkey)

  • 1⁄2 cup chopped onion

  • 1⁄2 cup chopped bell pepper

  • 1 (28 oz) can of tomatoes, or 2 (10 oz) cans of tomato sauce or 1 (6 oz) can of tomato paste (basically any canned tomatoes you can find)

  • Basil

  • Parsley

  • Garlic powder

  • Pinch red pepper flakes

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • 2 cups uncooked pasta


Directions

  1. Saute meat in a medium frying pan. If using ground turkey instead of beef, use a tiny bit of olive oil over medium heat. Cook meat until lightly browned, then add onions and peppers while sauteing the meat. Drain off any excess fat, and add tomatoes and spices. Simmer for 20 to 40 minutes.

  2. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to boil. Add salt, and cook elbows or other smaller noodles until al dente. Drain.

  3. After the meat has finished simmering, add noodles to the sauce, then mix and serve with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese.
