  Off the Cuff Mac Casserole
I was bored last night...didn't know what to make for dinner...I had some hamburger meat that I wanted to use...some mad and cheese in the pantry, and you know a few other things here and there...so I decided to put them all together... I remember when I was little, my mom used to make this tuna mac casserole...a can of tuna, box of Kraft Mac and Cheese, a can of peas...cook the mac, mix everything and bake for a few minutes to brown the top and mesh it all together...we loved it as kids, and i bet our parents liked it because it was easy and cheap! So I took that idea and ran with it, with the hamburger meat instead...and here's what I came up with... 2 boxes of mac and cheese...cook as called for on the box... 1 lb hamburger meat...brown and drain 3/4 cup chopped onion; 1/2 can mushrooms ... add these into the hamburger meat on heat after it was drained can of corn (or even peas too)...drain garlic salt salt and pepper mix everything together...in buttered casserole dish top with american cheese slices...or velvetta, whatever you have and like... bake at 350 for 10 minutes or so, until its browning on top I served it with some garlic bread...

My Photo
Name:
Location: Tulsa, OK, United States

I am a wife, (soon-to-be) Mom, but a child of God first & foremost. I spend most of my time with my husband or in the blogosphere. I like to read blog stories of families who are growing through adoption, especially international adoption, especially from Ethiopia, or elsewhere in Africa. I love to go to the movies or just sit on the couch with my handsome husband & watch one at home. Dale & I especially love movies that make us think, that are redemptive, & will spark conversation; we love talking! I can watch movies over & over & still enjoy them like the first time. I LOVE to capture our family’s memories on camera & scrapbook it! We will do anything & go anywhere to see a good concert; We love to travel. We have been to 12 states together already. We went to Columbus to see Genesis & San Francisco to see the DM*B (& to get engaged). We spent our honeymoon in the mountains in Arizona. Dale loves Presidential history, while I love studying about the World Wars & stories of those affected by it. I love to organize everything; however, keeping it kept up is still a challenge! I don’t like scary movies & I am afraid of clowns, gutters, & spiders (ask, I’ll surely explain).
