mom's cookbook

Mom gave us many things, and among them was a love of cooking and an entire file cabinet full of recipes. There's one thing that we can do every day to keep her in our hearts. (and in our stomachs) Use her recipes on a regular basis! I know we all make Scotcheroos, and other favorites, but there are SO MANY good ones. I'm going to test some of them, make notes, and share them with you on my blog. And Heidi and Pam are helping! (See the notes to determine who tested the recipe)

Prairie Dish Casserole

1 lb. ground beef
1 med. onion, chopped
1 T butter
1 16 oz cream style corn
1 small can tomato soup, undiluted
1 C grated cheddar cheese
1 16 oz can Chinese noodles

Saute onion in butter. Add ground beef and brown.
In 2 qt. casserole, mix corn,tomato soup, 3/4 C grated cheese and noodles. Add onion and beef. Top with remaining cheese. Bake, uncovered, at 350 for 20 minutes or until bubbly. Serve with tossed salad and french bread. Serves 6-8.

Pam says don't waste your time making this. It was totally unremarkable! It didn't taste bad- it just didn't taste- there was no zip to it. I ground some fresh pepper on it after the second bite and that helped. Didn't they grow herbs and spices out on that prairie?!

    Bummer! It looks like it doesn't go together - instead of chinese noodles, maybe it needs a bag of salt and peppered potato chips crushed over the top, but still, a can of tomato soup does not pack a lot of punch. And you know how I feel about cream style corn.... it's my THING.
