Busy-Family Casserole

I wanted to make a different pasta dish for once, instead of making the same old noodles and sauce, and when I saw this, I knew I had to try it. I made it with a few modifications - instead of egg noodles I used Cellentani noodles (or spiraly elbows as I like to call them), instead of chopped onion I used onion powder, and I added garlic salt, pepper, and parsley flakes. I also only needed 14 slices of cheese instead of 16. All in all, I think this recipe is really great! It tastes great, I love the texture, and the cheese is a nice addition. Plus, you can be really flexible with the ingredients, so you don't end up making the same thing again and again. All of my friends asked me for a copy of the recipe and I'm sure they'll love it too!

I really enjoyed this dish. I didn't have any Mexi-corn so I used regular corn instead. I agree with DavidsMom about pre-cooking the onion, I think I will do that next time. I also added a few things like Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, Louisiana Hot Sauce, garlic powder, salt & pepper. All this added a little kick to it!

I made this dish for my vegetarian daughter and we were pleasantly surprised. She and I both thought it was very good. I made the full amount and froze 1/2 before adding the noodles and plan on reheating it again tonight. Thanks for an easy tasty veggie dish!

My husband prefers his onions pre-cooked, so I sauteed them in a little olive oil with some garlic; I also added some pre-blended Italian seasoning to the soup mixture before putting with the noodles. I also would agree to reduce the amount of cheese; overall the recipe was delicious!!

The name of this recipe intrigued me and the absence of meat made it even more appealing. A little penny-pinching goes a long way! I must say that is is wonderful! The creamy, tomatoey sauce combined with the crunchiness and flavorfulness of the Mexicorn was a pleasant surprise. I have to say that I did not think that a medium onion was too much. Our family loves onions, anyway. I only topped the casserole with *8* slices of cheese and it was enough for me. All in all it was a great dish and I would definitely make it again!

We had a get together and wanted something quick and simple. It was the hit of the evening. Everyone loved it.

Yummy for all not just my vegetarian peeps! I added fresh cilantro, green and white onion and Tabasco for an added kick. I also used Chipotle White Corn from Green Giant. What a terrific dish!

My family is made up a few vegetarians and this is a quick recipe everyone in the house loves! I use soy crumbles in it instead of corn. I have used onions and peppers, onions and corn. This is a weekly staple in our menu now.

I decided to make this cause I had all the ingredients on hand, but I only ate it cause I didn't want to waste food. It's just bland, it needs more vegetables and spice of some kind.

it was pretty good, i added some chicken.

This recipe ruined my dinner party! An entire medium onion is WAY TOO MUCH! All we could taste was onion, and we ended up ordering pizza. I would reduce to two tsp. onion. Good thing my guests kept good spirits! I'll never live this flop down!

I made this because I had all the ingredients on hand, we found it bland. My kids didn't like it, and they usually like anything with noodles. They said it tasted wierd. I found it too "soupy tasting", I think the tomato soup in it made it taste funny. I think it would have been better with sour cream instead, I'll keep looking for a creamy noodle casserole recipe.

this was pretty good. i was looking for something to make besides tomato soup tonight for dinner. i cooked the onions before i put them in and used cheddar cheese. it was easy and tasty.

i added a pound of ground turkey and it only helped an already tasty and enjoyable recipe.

I had to try this just because of Hillbilly in the name! I made a few adjustments and thought it was OK...my husband LOVED it! A great way to clean out the pantry!

OK - added zucchini, yellow squash and doubled the corn. Changed cheese from Am to colby/mont. jack and gouda. Added garlic powder and SALT. And pepper. Need spices. Has promise, with your individual touches!

I have made this recipe for 30 years. The only difference is I add a pound of ground hamburger fried up with the onion. I can't imagine this dish without the hamburger in it.

It is a good recipe, very creamy and tastes great. I am sorry but I did add some mushrooms, hit Italian sausages and some milk so it dry out. I will definitely recommend and will make again. Thank you. Bubba.

I made this on a Friday during Lent because it doesn't use meat. I thought it was good but my husband just said it was ok. My kids ate it & it was simple to prepare so I thought it was a good recipe.

My husband LOVED this dish, but I just thought it was passable - a little too slimy for me.

My family did not like this recipe. It tasted funny.

This has become my “go to” recipe when making a dish for my daughter and grand children. It’s such a versatile and easy dish to make especially on short notice. I use 1 tbsp of onion powder in place of onions and add a 1/2 tsp of salt. I add pre-boiled frozen peas in place of corn and I add 1 pound of browned lean or xtra lean ground beef. I also use shredded Italian or cheddar cheese to the top. My family loves this dish!
