Teener's Dish

I have absolutely no idea how this dish got it's name or where I got the recipe. It's sorta like Hamberburger Helper, but home made. Hadn't made it in a long time - was looking through a Church cookbook that I had contributed too and found it. Still yummy!!

TEENER'S DISH

1 lb ground beef

1 cup chopped onion

1 green pepper, slivered

1 1/2 cups frozen kernel corn

3/4 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. pepper

2 2/3 cups dry colored fusilli (or other pasta)

2 3/4 cups tomato juice

1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese

Spray frying pan with non stick cooking spray. Add ground beef, onion and green pepper. Saute' until no pink remains in meat and onion is soft.

Add corn, salt, and pepper. Stir.

Layer 1/2 dry fusilli in 3 quart casserole followed by 1/2 meat mixture, secon 1/2 fusilli and second 1/2 meat. Pour tomato juice over all. Cover. Bake in 350F oven for 1 hour and 25 minutes until noodles are tender.

Sprinkle cheese on top. Bake, uncovered, for 5 minutes more. Dig in!!
