Inside-Out Ravioli

My mom got this recipe from friends when we lived in Colorado when I was about a year and half old. It is one of the "oldest" family recipes I can remember. This, along with game roast, is one of the tastes of home for me. 

1 lb. ground beef

1/2 cup chopped onion

1 clove garlic, minced

1 10 oz. package frozen spinach (liquid reserved)

1 16 oz. can spaghetti sauce

      with mushrooms (you can use sauce without mushrooms if you can't find it with mushrooms)

1 8 oz. can tomato sauce

1 6 oz. can tomato paste

1/2 t. salt

dash pepper

2 cups macaroni, cooked, drained

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 cup soft bread crumbs

2 beaten eggs

1/4 cup vegetable oil

Brown first 3 ingredients.  Cook macaroni according to package directions.  Cook spinach in a saucepan until all heated through and pour the spinach liquid in a liquid measuring cup. Add some water to the spinach liquid to make one cup.  Add spinach water and next 5 ingredients (tomato products, salt and pepper) to meat mixture.  Simmer 10 minutes.  Combine spinach and macaroni with remaining four ingredients (cheese, bread crumbs, eggs and oil) and spread in 13 x 9 x 2 inch pan.  Top with meat sauce.  Bake at 350* for 30 minutes.  Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
