The story of the recipe begins with the simplist of intentions: take whatever's in my kitchen and make something delicious. Instead, we forged something divine. I started grabbing things out of the cubbards while Bryan rummaged through my freezer; it felt more like a salvage operation than a meal plan, but we were determined to make it work.

As we gathered the ingredients, we followed more of a “stone soup” philosophy than an actual recipe: simply grabbed a can of something, held it up next to the casserole dish and said to ourselves “why the heck not?”. Through a steady combination of skill, intuition, and dumb luck we created something that was both simple and comforting.

Ingredients

4 Cups of Dried Egg Noodles
2 Cups of Frozen Vegetables
2 Cans of Cream of Celery Soup
2 Cans of Cream of Mushroom Soup
1 Cup of Water
4 Cloves of Garlic (Minced)
2 Cups of Shredded Cheese (Take Your Pick)
1 8 oz. Can of Black Olives (Chopped)
1 2 oz. Can of Green Chilis (Chopped)

Cooking Directions

In a large bowl, combine soups, olives, chilis, water, and garlic; mix well.
In a large casserole dish, spread layer of noodles and vegetables on the bottom
Pour soup mix over noodles and vegetables.
