Cheeseburger Pasta

This recipe my friend, Jean, found and we decided to try together several years ago. It is quick, easy, and delicious. The ingredients are things our family always has on hand so it is easy to put together quick when we don't feel like spending a lot of time cooking or our plans change last minute.

1 lb. Ground Beef
1 can condensed Cheddar Cheese soup
1 can condensed tomato soup
1-1/2 cups Water
2 c. uncooked medium shell pasta

Cook beef in skillet until browned. Pour off fat. Add remaining ingredients. Heat to a boil. Cook over medium heat for 10 mins, or until pasta is tender - stirring often. Let set 2-5 minutes before serving.

For a little flavor twist, try adding crumbled bacon.

Corn Casserole

This is another favorite request I receive. It sounds a little odd when you read the recipe. But it is a huge hit! It goes well with just about any meat selection and is also a wonderful dish for a potluck. It is quick and simple.

1 can Cream Style Corn
1 can Whole Kernel Corn (NOT drained)
1 stick butter, cut into small pieces
1 cup Elbow Noodles
1 cup Velveeta Cheese, cut into small cubes
Diced Onion, Salt & Pepper to taste

Mix all ingredients and pour into greased glass baking dish. Cover with foil. Bake at 320 degrees for 45 minutes. Remove foil, stir, and bake uncovered an additional 10-15 minutes or until the noodles are soft and most of the liquid is absorbed.
