Red Gold Tomatoes generously sent me a gift box full of Red Gold goodies. In the box were 4 cans of tomatoes, a large sturdy shopping bag, a key chain, a Red Gold Cookbook, a magnet, Red Gold Ketchup and a brochure full of tomato soup recipes from around the world.

Budget Stretching Recipe: $.74 per serving It’s a fast and easy meal for the times when you’ve had a long day at work and not a lot of time at home. This recipe is used in several school lunch programs because children love it!

Ingredients
1 pound lean ground beef
1 cup chopped onion
1 (14.5 ounce) can Red Gold® Stewed Tomatoes or 1 (14.5 ounce) can Red Gold® Petite Diced Tomatoes with Onion, Celery & Green Pepper
1 cup elbow macaroni
2 cups shredded pasteurized prepared cheese product

Directions:

* In a large skillet, brown the ground beef and onion. Drain well. Add RED GOLD® STEWED TOMATOES and 1 cup of water; bring to a boil. Add macaroni and bring back to a boil.
* Reduce the heat to simmer and cook for 10 minutes or until macaroni is done. Sprinkle cheese on top and stir until cheese is melted.

Cook Hint::
Properly wrapped, fresh ground beef can be kept in the freezer at 0° for 3 months. Ground beef wrapped and frozen flat will stack easily and make best use of freezer space. These packages also thaw quicker. Be sure not to stack packages until they are completely frozen.

Guest Post by Royal Barber

Being a healthy dad is very important to me.  I quit smoking when my oldest son started to crawl around the house.  I couldn’t really just keep the smoke in the back of the house away from him.  Even though I enjoyed smoking, it was time to quit.  Then after quitting, I put on about 30 pounds.  That was January of 2003 and I haven’t had a cigarette since.  I had quit before and now know that if I have just one cigarette, I will smoke again.  I changed my diet and lost about 40 pounds.  Unfortunately, that weight didn’t stay off and I am now still about 10 pounds heavier than when I was smoking.  I would like to get back to about 220 pounds.  I am 6’3″ and I felt really good at that weight.

Family fitness is a big goal of mine.  Not only am I getting into better shape, but I am teaching my sons that being healthy is important. My oldest son is 6 and talks about recycling, potato chips aren’t healthy for you and many things that never crossed my mind as a child.  These are lessons that will stay with him forever.  Then hopefully he will pass them on to his children.  So we are using We Fit Families as a family to challenge each other to keep fit.  It is really something that our family is doing together.  My wife has a membership to a gym as does our 6 year old.  She found out that I can go there also without having to pay an enrollment fee, just the monthly fee.  That saves money too.

I am really excited to be taking part in We Fit Families Mothers Day Mega Bash! Since the goal of this bash is to celebrate our efforts to to keep our families healthy.
