So I have really no idea how it made its way into my pantry. I am really not a soup can cuisine kind of girl. Honest. I swear. But there it was...a single can of Campbell's Cheddar Cheese soup. I must have bought it by accident thinking it was mushroom or chicken noodle or something else. Yeah...that's it....accidentally purchased it.
In the "spirit" of the challenge - which thankfully will be ending soon - the soup must be used! Sorry kids but it must be done. The recipe on the back of the can is for some kind of abomination....errrr....delightful combination called "Salsa Mac & Beef". Too bad we've used up all the cans and jars of salsa we have, so it will have to be added later or omitted all together.
Oh well....now it istemporarily re-named Om's Cheddar Cheesey Mac & Beef. Yes, you are correct, I have placed the burden...err...honour on Om to make use of this little gem. I just can't bring myself to do it.
Instructions:
Brown 1 lb. lean ground beef or turkey in a skillet. Stir in one can beef broth and 1 can water. Add 2 cups uncooked elbow pasta and cook for 10 minutes or until tender. Mix in 1 can Campbell's Cheddar Cheese Soup and 1 cup salsa. Heat thoroughly. Serves 4.

Enjoy kids!
We can only hope that when the time comes for them to choose a home to put us in, they don't remember this dinner. And, any leftovers go to the dog.
ReplyDeleteI am saddened. After all the time I have spent trying to shape their young pallets, they actually liked it!!! Oh well.
