Thanksgiving- style casserole

on 09/30/2011

This casserole has a bit of a background story:

Yesterday night, my mom and I were thinking about dinner. I had an idea to make a casserole with cream-of-celery soup, elbows, caramelized onions, bread crumbs, and cheese. However, we did not have the soup. So ours came out a bit different but it was good.

Ingredients:

Breadcrumbs

Onion

“Elbows” pasta

Orzo ( if desired)

Cheese ( if desired) (we used  mozzarella)

Cream- of – celery soup

Process: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cook pasta. If the pasta tends to stick together ( which it will) add butter. Then, combine with the soup while its hot. Next, if your breadcrumbs are not seasoned, combine them with onion powder, basil, salt and pepper. If your breadcrumbs ARE seasoned, use those. Use a baking dish and coat it with Crisco ( or another shortening or non-stick-). Put the soup-coated pasta  in the baking dish. Coat with cheese and breadcrumbs on top. Bake untill it bubbles and the cheese is melting. ( For the cheese to brown, turn your oven to BROIL.)

Enjoy!
