Instructions: ** Elbow macaroni
*** chunky

1. Pour the beef broth and macaroni into saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the macaroni is tender, about 5 minutes.

2. Meanwhile, cook the ground beef in a frying pan, stirring to break up any large chunks, until the meat is brown; drain off the fat.

3. Drain the beans (reserve the liquid). Puree 1 cup of beans with all of the reserved liquid in a blender. When the macaroni is tender, stir the pureed beans, whole beans, cooked meat and spaghetti sauce into the pot. Heat through and serve.
