  • Total 20 min
  • Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 1 package (7 ounces) elbow macaroni (2 cups)
  • 1 cup frozen whole kernel corn
  • 1 cup salsa
  • 1 small green bell pepper, chopped (1/2 cup)
  • 1 can (14 1/2 ounces) no-salt-added whole tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 can (15 to 16 ounces) kidney beans, rinsed and drained
  • Freshly ground pepper, if desired

Steps

  • 1
    Cook and drain macaroni as directed on package.
  • 2
    While macaroni is cooking, heat remaining ingredients except beans and pepper to boiling in 2-quart saucepan over medium heat, breaking up tomatoes; reduce heat. Simmer uncovered 5 minutes.
  • 3
    Stir in macaroni and beans; cook until hot. Serve with pepper.

  • Dried pasta made from wheat is a good source of complex carbohydrates, and egg-free pasta is free of fat and cholesterol. If you like, use small or medium pasta shells instead of the elbow macaroni.
