An Easy Weeknight Dinner

We had this for dinner last night (along with some broccoli and fruit) and we'll be having leftovers again tonight! I love it when I have leftovers!
1 pound ground beef
1/4 cup minced onions
2 14.5 cans of stewed tomatoes (I chop mine in my mini food processor)
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. chili powder
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/4 tsp. sugar
1 cup uncooked macaronies
1 can of corn or peas (optional)
In a large skillet, brown the ground beef and drain off fat.
Add tomatoes and seasonings, bring mixture to a boil.
Reduce heat, cover and simmer for five minutes.
Add macaronis and corn or peas- if using, cover and then simmer for about 15 minutes.
Uncover and simmer until macaroni is tender.
