Mom's Mac & Tomatoes

So some people call this Goulash, but growing up my Mom and us kids always called it Macaroni and Tomatoes. The recipe is something I derived by watching Mom but am sure she did things differently especially as I don't have access to her canned tomatoes and juice from Dad's garden *sigh* - but storebought will have to do.  Beware this makes a large pot full (Mom had to feed 7 kids!) and I have never been able to make it any smaller nor do I think it will taste right if I did.

Chop/dice one small onion
Chop/dice one small green pepper
1 lb hamburger
1 bag elbow macaroni
1 large can tomato juice
1 large can diced tomatoes
Salt and Pepper to taste

Brown onion and green pepper with hamburger until the meat is cooked through and vegetables are soft - drain if desired depending on grease amount. While this is cooking boil the macaroni in salted water until desired consistency. After hambuger and macaroni is done put the two together in a large pot (usually the one I cook the macaroni in) and then add the can of diced tomatoes and the can of tomato juice, heat through and salt and pepper  (I LOVE LOTS OF PEPPER ON IT) and serve with bread and butter. Yum.
