Two days in a row, I am on a roll!

Let's make Macaroni and Beef Casserole.  The real name of this recipe is "Dr. Norman Vincent Peale's Lipton Onion Soup Macaroni and Beef Casserole.  Who am I kidding?  No one, around here calls it that, here it was called,  "that macaroni casserole thingy you make", while the girls were all looking at me, hungry.  I am pretty sure the kids will like this one, not to name names, (Jeniece) was a very picky eater as a kid and she even liked this, so that is one great endorsement if you have a picky eater in the house, so let's get started. 

Here is what you will need:

Most of the preparation is done on the stove top.  Brown the hamburger, cook the macaroni until al dente, add remaining ingredients and simmer:

Transfer all to a baking dish, and heat through. Bake until cheese on top is lightly browned and casserole is bubbly:

Ready to eat ohhhh this is gonna be good, oh wait it is just breakast time for me, I better wait a reasonable amount of time so no one thinks I am a carb addict.  Never mind, come here you cheesy goodness, I have waited long enough. :) I should say something clever like "It is dinner time somewhere", but I would not know where to say it is actually dinner time, so let's leave it at this.
