Potluck Pasta Soup

1 lb ground beef
6 cups water
2 (14.5 oz) cans Italian stewed tomatoes
2 cups diced carrots
1 1/2 cupts diced celery
1 cup chopped onion
1 envelope onion soup mix
1 T sugar
1 tsp Italian seasoning
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp pepper
3 cups cooked elbow macaroni
beef boulion crystals

In a soup kettle, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink, drain. Add water, tomatoes, carrots, celery, onion, soup mix and seasonings, bring to a boil. Reduce heat, simmer covered for 30 min or until veggies are tender. Stir in macaroni. (When I tasted it, it seemed a bit flat so I added boulion to taste.) Turned out delicious! What I like about this recipe is the ingredients are things we usually have on hand.
