Zippy Beef Casserole

This casserole has been a long-time favorite of my family's...now I'm trying it out on my husband and son! I think Ben actually ate some tonight (which is quite a feat considering he won't eat anything but bread lately)! Origin - unknown.

1 lb. ground beef
3/4 cup elbow macaroni
1 can cream soup (probably mushroom would work best)
3/4 cup milk
2/3 cup ketchup (may want to reduce to 1/2 cup if it's too much for your tastes)
2 oz. Velveeta cheese, cubed
1/4 cup green pepper, chopped (can be omitted, but is also a way to get veggies into your kids!)
1/2 onion, chopped
1 cup crushed potato chips

Preheat oven to 350. Brown meat and onion; drain off excess fat. Cook macaroni according to package directions; drain. In an ungreased 2 quart casserole dish, mix all ingredients except for potato chips. Cover and bake for 40 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle potato chips on top. Bake uncovered for an additional 5 minutes.

Enjoy!

This was very good. I think I'll omit the potato chips the next time though. My daughter ate EVERY bite, wich is rare. My husband really liked it and we sent the leftovers next door to my SIL's family....they raved too!!
