This recipe is loosely based on a recipe that I found in Taste of Home a year ago. I changed the bread, the cheese and messed with the spices a little. If you want to see the original recipe, click on the title. It is a favorite quick dinner around our house. Serve with chips, salad and chocolate pudding.
Preheat oven to Broil.
Fry in pan with the onion until the beef is no longer pink.
1 lb. ground beef
1 T. dry minced onion
Add:
1 (14 1/2 oz.) can of diced tomatoes
1 t. dried oregano
1/4 t. salt
1/4 t. garlic powder
Shake together in shaker jar and add to the tomato beef mixture:
2 t. cornstarch
1/4 c. water
Cook till slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Add and melt:
6 mozzarella cheese slices or about 1 1/2 c. shredded
Stir till it is all mixed together. Slice one loaf of french bread into 4 sections and then in half lengthwise (8 pieces). Layer the meat mixture on the bread and top with cheese. Cut 4 slices of mozzarella cheese diagonally or use about 3/4 cup shredded.
Broil until the cheese is golden brown, about 6 minutes.
4 servings

I think I have loosely used this recipe several times, each time using different ingredients that I had on hand. From experience, I know that this is a great quick lunch recipe to stir up for unexpected guests. :-)
I just thought of something---pepperoni mught be good added to this, too.
