Ingredients
Steps
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the macaroni noodles until they are al dente. Drain and set aside.
Slice the kielbasa sausage into thin rounds.
In a Dutch oven over medium heat (or over a fire), add the sliced kielbasa and one small diced yellow onion.
Cook the meat and onion together until the sausage is lightly browned and the onions are softened.
Add two cans of canned beans and two cans of stewed tomatoes to the Dutch oven.
Stir in the cooked macaroni noodles.
Simmer the mixture together for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving.
Notes
The original recipe from the 1930s typically used sliced hot dogs instead of kielbasa. This is a very versatile dish intended to be made with whatever pantry staples are available.
