Ingredients
2 pounds of lean ground beef
2 large yellow onions, chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped
3 cups of water
2 (15 ounce) cans tomato sauce
2 ( 14.5 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons dried Italian herb seasoning
3 bay leaves
1 tablespoon salt
2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni
Directions
Cook and stir the ground beef in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, breaking the meat up as it cooks, until the meat is no longer pink and has started to brown, about 10 minutes. Skim of excess fat, and stir in the onions and garlic. Cook and stir the meat mixture until the onions are translucent, about 10 more minutes.
Stir water, tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, soy sauce, Italian seasoning, bay leaves and salt into the meat mixture and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir macaroni into the mixture, cover, and simmer over low heat until the pasta is tender, about 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, discard bay leaves, and serve
