Tomato Beef Country Casserole 1

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 Cream of Tomato Soup

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.

Cream of Mushroom Soup

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.

    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.

    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.
