Cowboy Pasta

My sister-in-law made this once and it was really good!

• 1 lb ground beef
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 (29 oz) can tomato sauce
• 1 cup water
• 1 (6 oz) can tomato paste
• 1 (8 oz) can diced tomatoes (also good with fire roasted diced tomatoes)
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 1 tsp dried basil
• 1 lb macaroni noodles
• 1 can corn, drained
• 1 cup shredded cheese

In a skillet, cook meat (I always season hamburger with garlic salt and pepper), onion and garlic over medium heat until meat is done; drain. Add tomato sauce, water, tomato paste, diced tomatoes, salt, basil, and oregano. Mix well and let simmer- the longer the better so the flavors blend! Boil noodles until done, drain.  Mix noodles, meat mixture, cheese, and corn.  Again, if you find a great deal on sauce use it or use leftover sauce.
