something different

Ok, today I have something different for you.  I'm not going to write about my feelings (shocker, I know).  Instead... I'm going to give you a recipe of sorts.  I say of sorts, because I really don't have any specific amounts... for any of it. :D  That's how I roll.
So, this recipe is from my grandma, via my mom.  You will need:
Campbells Tomato soup
Shredded cheddar cheese (Dare I say Tillamook?)
Pasta (you choice of shape.  I usually use the bow-tie or farfalle variety)
Lean(est) ground beef (or turkey or venison, etc.  You can even use chicken, I'm sure)
Salt
Pepper
Italian seasoning (last night, I used spicy spaghetti seasoning and it was super yummy)

First, get the pasta cooking.  Next, brown the beef, seasoning with Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.  If you do not use lean ground beef, you would want to drain it at this point. Then, add tomato soup to ground beef mixture, as well as a can of water and some more Italian seasoning, as desired.  Simmer for awhile.  Add cheese immediately before adding to pasta.  Drain pasta and add tomato soup mixture.  Eat directly.
This is such a yummy recipe that I usually eat entirely too much and feel sick.  :)  I usually use one can of soup, a fistful of cheese, a third of a box of pasta, a quarter pound of ground beef and seasonings to taste.  That will give me about three or four portions.  Obviously, I'm only one person, so if you have a family, you can multiply accordingly.  Enjoy!
