GRANDMA'S ONE PAN SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• Start by browning the hamburger with the onion, green pepper and mushrooms. ( I use a lid to get the peppers and onions soft).
• Next, after the meat is brown, the onion and green peppers are soft and the mushrooms have cooked, add the ketchup and tomato juice.
• Break your spaghetti noodles into thirds, add and stir GENTLY into the sauce.
• Cover and cook stirring about ever 5-10 minutes for about 30-45 minutes, or until the noodles are done.
• HINT: You may want to start off by not using all the tomato juice from the can. I usually find that the more noodles you use the more juice you need. I like mine filled with noodles so I always use much more.
