3 1/2 c Uncooked noodles; up to 4 c
12 oz Spam; finely chopped
32 oz Tomatoes (1 qt)
1 cl Garlic; minced
1 md Onion; finely chopped
1/4 ts Dried basil
1/4 ts Thyme
1/4 ts Mexican oregano
1/4 lb Velveeta; melted
Parmesan cheese
1 ts Mustard
1/4 c Bread crumbs
I use home canned tomatoes. You can substitute a 10-3/4 oz can of
condensed tomato soup, undiluted. If Velveeta isn't available, you
can substitute a 10-3/4 oz can of condensed cheese soup, undiluted.
If you do decide to use the soups, see the note below.
Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain, rinse and set
aside.
In a 2 qt saucepan, brown Spam. Add tomatoes, garlic, onion, and
spices. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until thickened, and
onion, and garlic are tender. Add Velveeta, some Parmesan cheese, and
mustard; cook and stir until cheese is melted. Remove from heat and
pour over noodles. Mix well, making sure noodles are coated.
Coat a casserole dish with cooking spray. Sprinkle with bread crumbs.
Bake at 350 F for 30 minutes.
Note:
If using soups, saute Spam, onion, and garlic until vegetables are
tender and Spam is browned.
Combine soups and mustard with 1/2 can of water. Add Spam mixture and
mix well. Pour over noodles and mix well. Pour into casserole dish,
sprinkle with bread crumbs. Bake at 350 F for 30 minutes.
