This is my husband’s favorite casserole. The recipe comes from his mother, she said it was originally called something like pot of gold but we now call it Hubby’s Favorite Casserole. The recipe is simple and basic and is how my whole family likes it. You could always ad some spices to it if you want some more flavor. This is a great all in one dish.
Hubby’s Favorite Casserole
1 lb. ground beef
1/2 onion, diced
1 1/2 cups water
1 can tomato soup
2 cups uncooked egg noodles (or whatever pasta you happen to have)
1 can corn, drained
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (I probably use more than this because I just eye ball it)
salt and pepper to taste
I a large skillet brown ground beef with onion, drain. Mix in tomato soup and water and bring to a boil. Add noodles and cook for 10 minutes covered, stirring occasionally. Mix in can of corn. Put half of mixture in a 2 qt casserole dish and cover with 1/2 cup of cheese. Pure remaining noodle mixture in casserole dish and top with remaining cheese. Cook in a 350 degree oven, covered, for 25 minutes. Uncover and cook another 5 minutes. Enjoy.
Oooh – sounds like a good one to try. I hope it’s not blasphemous if I add some veggies in – I’m horrible at making a side-dish, and I have tons of veggies that need to be used. I think mushrooms would be delicious, and it sounds like bell peppers would go well…
Thank you for this tasty recipe! I finally got around to making it yesterday. I wrote about it here on my blog:
