Sometimes I crave this kind of casserole. Normally they are made with lots of condensed this or that along with hamburger and noodles. I have to admit that this casserole is that; but with a difference. I actually looked for heathy canned condensed soups. Here are two that I found.
Amy’s Organic Cream of Tomato Soup has all natural ingredients. It does cost more than Campbell’s but I feel it is worth it.
Pacific Organic Cream of Mushroom Soup is also a good choice. Both companies have both cream of tomato and cream of mushroom.
Tomorrow is election day. We all need to make our voices heard. This Tomato Beef Country Casserole is an easy meal to put together. Then sit back and watch the results. I will be glad to get this election behind us.

Love your pasta napkin! I will be glad when the election is over as well!
Well, It’s over.
Sounds like a comforting meal.
I froze half of it. Think it is time for another comforting meal.
I know what you mean as I crave these same kind of dishes.
My favorite is mac and cheese with hamburger Larry.
Sometimes you just have to have a noodle casserole! This sounds like a good contender. I especially like the idea of using alternative, healthier soup options. I will be pinning this for sure. Thanks.
Just wish healthier options were cheaper! Thanks Tac.
Reminds me of a long time ago:) My daughters liked this kind of meal:)
I bet it is very tatsy
I read your last comment first and thought . . . .what? LOL.
UGH..TASTY:):)
My husband’s grandmother used to make a very similar casserole and I would make it too when my girls were growing up. I do crave them too! Thanks for the research on the healthier-option soups to use in this, Penny.
Thanks Susan. My Mother always had a cupboard full of canned soup.
