Mom's Noodle Casserole

This is a very hearty and delicious cassarole!! My "fussy" eater who doesn't like tomato dishes, soups, gravies or just about anything else even loves it.

I did add black pepper because we like a little more spice, but even this didn't bother Mr. Fussy. Thank you for sharing this!
