Poor man meat ball veggie mac stew

By Boyd Travis Jonesville, Lee County, VA.

2 Pounds of lean hamburger
1 Big onion chopped
2 Cans of sliced carrots
1 or 2 cans of kernal corn
2 Big size cans of Hunt's crushed tomatoes
4 to 5 diced potatos
2 Boxes of Beef Broth
1 Box of macaroni
Garlic salt, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, Black pepper, Salt, we prefer cosher salt
1/2 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes "Optional"

Make your hamburger meat balls into about 1 inch or so size, put in a big pot of boiling water.
Put a pinch of garlic salt and onion powder in the boiling water and boil meatballs till done.

Healthy way of cooking meat suggestions!
This way of cooking meats is much better for you and taste better too!
Our family boils our meat in a big pot separately in water such as Beef cubes / hamburger OR sausage! 
We boil the meat in water for about 1 hour or until the meat is fully cooked. 
When done, we then use a colander and pour off the hot greasy water off into a bowl then you can 
discard out doors somewhere NOT pour your greasy water off into your kitchen sink! 
“Over time pouring grease or greasy water off into your kitchen sink drains will clog your drains” 
Now you have your meat cooked and a big percentage of your meat cooked without all that bad grease! 
Now you have your meat poured and drained in a bowl. 

In a slow cooker, put 2 boxes of the beef broth and 2 cans of the crushed tomatos on high temp.
Put chopped onion, carrots, corn, potatos, 2 teaspoons of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, red pepper flakes,
2 teaspoon of black pepper, 2 teaspoons of salt, uncooked macaroni. Stir all lightly then put in meat balls.
Put slow cooker on high for about 30 min.s then put on medium until macaroni and potatos are done.
Serve and enjoy!
