Very tasty and easy too. I liked the fact that I can make this with stuff I always have on hand. It's one of those comfort food kind of dishes. Thanks for making you mom submit it Amber.

I wasn't exactly thrilled with how this dish looked when it came out of the oven however, I loved it's taste right the first bite. But DH and BIL were quite ambivalent about it saying it was pretty bland and tasteless. I made it exactly as stated except that my grocery store did not have cream of cheddar soup, so I used Cheddar and Broccoli. And I didn't notice until after cooking the meal that the tomato soup can was supposed to be family sized, not the usual 10 oz. I doubt either of these two items would have made such a difference as to change the guy's minds, and really, I think they just have a thing about noodles and hamburger casserole. It might be childhood related and who the heck wants to go there???!!! ;-) I recommend this recipe to anyone who loves comfort food. It really is quite good and easy to make.
