Mulligan...a family tradition!

Quick post...many people had asked "What is mulligan?!" Well...for any of my cousins or sisters reading this, they'll know right away. My grandmother used to make it for my mother and her three sisters...and I know my mom and aunts have made it over the years...for us...it is comfort food....memories of childhood. It is also a thrifty meal that can stretch to feed many people. It's very simple, and here it is!

Mulligan
brown 1 pound ground meat, drain and cook 1 chopped onion with it.

cook elbow macaroni until al denti, drain and rinse. (rinsing is very important)

add 1 large can tomato sauce, 1 can tomato soup and some water (or tomato juice) , salt and pepper

Mix it all together...and only add as much water or tomato juice so that it is nice and juicy as the pasta will absorb some liquid. That's it! (it's really good with a little parmesean cheese) We usually have salad or green beans with it...or even just cut up some cucumbers.

We use gf macaroni, and organic sauce and soup when we can afford it...if not, it still beats the ingredients in hamburger helper! Enjoy! ~Sue~
