This is one of my all time favorite recipes that was handed down to me from my Mom. We called it "noodle casserole" and it was one of the most requested in our home! When my sisters learned that I had included this recipe in my blog, they were not happy with me for sharing it! I was told that it was a secret family recipe and it should stay that way. Somehow I missed out on knowing this important piece of information so it got included! In my heart, I think Mama is smiling at me because I love her recipes so very much and want to share them with everyone. This recipe, once again, is one of those great comfort food dishes; it is also wonderful when reheated if you're lucky enough to have any left! I generally double the recipe and use a 9"x13" pan . All you need to complete the meal is a tossed green salad and some bread sticks or a loaf of Italian or French bread.
