Easy Hamburger Corn Casserole

This can be a do ahead casserole just pour the ingredients into a casserole dish before you do the final 20 minute simmer and then pop it into a 350F oven 25-30 minutes before serving - put some buttered crumbs on top - I like to serve it over noodles or add cooked macaroni to it for the final simmer - I treat this as a good basic casserole that is tasty as is or even better with your creative touch
