Use a large roasting pan, and layer lean ground beef on bottom of pan. Evenly layer vegetables as listed: Potatoes, onions, carrots, mushrooms, green, red and yellow peppers, celery, tomatoes, Manwich sauce, salt and pepper, paprika, chili powder and 2 drops of Tabasco sauce. Do this until everything has been used. Then add your reserved juice from mushrooms. May need to add a little water, if needed.

Cover and bake at 350°F until all vegetables are tender when tested by a fork. Uncover and bake another 10 minutes.

Serve with garlic toast or garlic bread. Very good with dinner rolls or milk rolls. Serve with cooked rice, if desired.
