This has been my go to recipe when we arrive on Vinalhaven for vacation, hence the name "First night on Vinalhaven Dinner".

1 Red or Green Pepper(Chopped) 1 Med/Large Onion (Chopped) 1 One pound of Hamburger 1 Large can of diced tomatoes 1 Medium can of tomato sauce (I use Hunts brand) 1 Box of Elbow Macaroni Salt/Pepper 1-2 tablespoon of oil (olive oil or canola)

Saute chopped onion and pepper till softened, add hamburg, salt & pepper to taste and scramble hamburg till cooked through (drain excess grease). Add diced tomatoes and tomato sauce and simmer. Cook elbow macaroni. Blend some sauce into macaroni, and save sauce to put extra on top of each serving.
