It always warms my heart to see the Casserole once again take center stage in the culinary world. Here is a favorite with a 2016 twist. The short cut mentioned here isn't about time, but the actually type of pasta. Short cut spaghetti looks similar to the pasta in Kraft mac and cheese, a longer tube shape. So if you don't have that, substitute penne regate, or strozzapreti - even broken spaghetti is fun! If you are from the western part of the US, you will know that Creamette pasta company sold this type in a box, not that long ago.

Instructions
  1. Cook pasta to package directions - DO NOT OVER COOK- in fact shave a minute or two off the cooking time. This is going in the oven, remember! While that has started, brown the beef, celery, onion, garlic and spices in a pan until cooked through. Drain the hot pasta and combine with the condensed soup, stir throughly, and then add the beef mixture stir again, and slip into a buttered casserole dish. Bake for 30 minutes or so, until bubbly and brown on top.
Recipe Notes

According to my well worn recipe card, you may add Chinese noodles on the top towards the last bit of cooking, until they brown... for "interest".

Because that is fancy in 1972.

My mom even stepped it up with putting "soy sauce"on the table, and chopped green onions to add on top. Now my VikingDad would have NONE of that flavor stuff... 🙂

Traditionally, this would have been served with a molded orange jello salad. (which is it's own food group where I come from)

Ingredients
For the filling
  • 1 Pound Ground Beef
  • 1 Pound Ground Pork
  • 2 cans black beans lightly rinsed and drained
  • 1/2 cup or so onions, peppers chopped
  • 3 small pkgs Goya Seasoning seasoning packets... the orange ones yum
  • 1 small can Red Enchilada sauce I like Chi-chis!
for the topping
  • 2 boxes jiffy corn muffin mix the cute tiny ones
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 1 can yellow corn reserve 1/2 cup of the water and use in the mixture
  • 1 7 oz plain greek yogurt
  • 1 pkg shredded cheese cheddar, jack... whatever is in the drawer
Servings: 6 people
Units:
Instructions
  1. Heat your oven to 425 In a cast iron skillet brown the meat with the onions, garlic and seasoning, when almost cooked add the beans and the enchilada sauce and let that cook through and reduce a tad.
  2. While the meat is hanging out, mix the muffins according to the package directions but add a little of that corn water, the corn and the yogurt to the mixture.
  3. Put the meat mixture in a 9x13 pan and top with the corn muffin mixture and sprinkle a little shredded chess on top and put into the oven. It's done when it is browned up nicely...
Recipe Notes

Serve this with a salad and you have a great little dinner for your family. I would think that leftovers will be amazing, but there never is any left... so... your mileage may vary.

My mom left me a little recipe box with favorite foods I ate as a child. I didn't find it until she had passed. True to Midwestern spirit this is a hot dish that is quick and easy to make. And there were no measurements on the card... this is like scalloped potatoes with burger... quite good!
