This comforting Casserole With Spam is a hearty, budget-friendly meal that transforms simple pantry staples into a delicious family dinner.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325ðF (165ðC).
  2. Cook creamette pasta according to package directions until al dente, then drain.
  3. In a medium saucepan, combine the can of cream soup, 1 cup milk, chopped onion, chopped green peppers, and black pepper.
  4. Place the saucepan over low heat and stir occasionally.
  5. Gradually add the grated processed cheese, stirring constantly until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is smooth.
  6. Remove the sauce from heat and gently fold in the cooked creamette pasta until evenly coated.
  7. Pour the pasta mixture into a 1.5-quart baking dish and spread evenly.
  8. Slice the Spam into 1/4-inch thick slices and arrange them in a single layer on top of the pasta, covering the surface.
