Wednesday Recipes: Yum-a-Setta

Dear readers, I hope that strange name drew you in! I didn't make it up (nor did I create the recipe). I have however, been making this homey casserole since the late 1900s. I found the recipe in a "Country Woman" magazine in an article about Amish cooking. I'm afraid I don't have any more details in my notes--other than it's easy and cheesy. :)

Yum-a-Setta

Ingredients:

2 pounds hamburger

Brown sugar (1 to 2 tablespoons; we prefer less)

Salt and pepper to taste

1/4 cup onion, chopped

1 can tomato soup, undiluted

1 package (16 ounces) yolk-free egg noodles

1 can cream of chicken soup, undiluted

1 package (8 ounces) processed cheese (Velveeta)

Directions:

1. Brown hamburger with salt, pepper, brown sugar, and onion. Add tomato soup.

2. Cook egg noodles, drain. Add cream of chicken soup to noodles.

3. Layer hamburger mixture and noodle mixture in a 9x13 inch casserole dish with processed cheese sliced thinly between layters.

4. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

5. Done!

I served with a tossed salad and sliced baguette (spread with butter, dip in olive oil, or smear with refrigerated pesto). Enjoy and God bless! Christina
