"Missionary" Casserole

Mom made this for the first time when the missionaries were coming over for dinner, and "missionary" casserole has become a family classic ever since!

1 lb. ground hamburger, cooked
1 bag cooked elbow or bowtie noodles
1 can seasoned Campbell’s tomato soup (Tomato w/ garlic & herb, if possible, or with Italian herbs)
1 can tomato sauce
1 package spaghetti mix
1 can chopped olives
1 c. grated cheese

Cook meat and set aside. Cook noodles. Drain both. Combine meat and noodles with all other ingredients. Save a bit of cheese to sprinkle over top. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 – 45 minutes, or until hot and bubbly.

P.S. This FREEZES great! Just make it in a disposable casserole dish and freeze before baking. (Be sure to make the noodles al dente or even a little under cooked as they will grow softer after freezing.) Thaw and bake as normal when ready to eat.
