This is one of my families favorites:

Beef and Pasta Alfredo

1b. lean ground beef
3 green onions, sliced
1 (10-oz.) container refrigerated Alfredo sauce
3 Italian plum tomatoes, quartered, sliced (11/2 cups)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil


Cook penne to desired doneness as directed on package. Drain; cover to keep warm.. Meanwhile, brown ground beef in large skillet over medium-high heat until thoroughly cooked, stirring frequently. Drain. Stir in onions and sauce. Reduce heat to medium; cook and stir 3 to 5 minutes or until bubbly. Add cooked penne, tomatoes and basil; cook 3 to 5 minutes or until thoroughly heated, stirring occasionally. If desired, add salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
