My friend Lorraine shared this recipe with me years ago and it’s one of my kid’s favorites. This actual recipe comes from one of my church cookbooks from 1954. I usually just cook it all in a fry pan but I’m sure it’s just as good or better baked in the oven.
1 lb. hamburger
1 small onion (optional)
1 large can mixed vegetables
1 large can spaghetti with tomato sauce
Fry hamburger and onion. Add mixed vegetables and spaghetti. Bake 1 hour.
