Mac 'n' Beef Soup
Prep/Cook Time: 30 minutes

1/2 pound lean ground beef (85% lean)
1 medium onion, chopped (about 1/2 cup)
1 small green pepper, chopped (about 1/2 cup)
1/2 teaspoon dried basil leaves, crushed
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves, crushed
3 cans (10 3/4 ounces each) Campbell's® Healthy Request® Condensed Tomato Soup
4 cups water
2 teaspoons lemon juice
4 cups cooked elbow macaroni (about 2 cups uncooked), cooked without salt

In large saucepan over medium-high heat, cook beef, onion, pepper, basil and oregano until beef is browned, stirring to separate meat. Pour off fat.

Add soup, water, lemon juice and macaroni. Reduce heat to low and heat through. Serves 8.

TIP: Count on green peppers to add a spark of color and fresh flavor to soups, salads, and main dishes. Purchase green peppers that are glossy, firm and well-shaped. Avoid peppers with soft spots and blemishes.
