Servings: persons

1 lb lean ground beef
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can tomato soup (do not dilute)
1 (15 ounce) can corn, drained
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained, save juice to add later to casserole as it simmers
8 ounces pasta, such as macaroni, flat noodles, tube, sea shell, etc
These are the seasonings I happen to use
3 tablespoons dried onion
2 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
1/4 teaspoon oregano
1/8 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin

1
Brown ground beef in a large frying pan and drain well. Place back in pan, then all the ingredients, except the noodles. Mix well, cover and simmer.
2
While preparing the above, cook the noodles al dente, drain well and add to the meat mixture. Save the noodle water as you will need to add liquid to the casserole as it cooks down, but use the saved diced tomato juice first. I add garlic powder to the noodle water, while cooking, to flavor the water.
3
Add noodles.
4
Cook on low-to-simmer for about 15-20 minutes. Check often and stir. Add tomato juice/noodle liquid, as needed. It can get too thick.
