SALMON CASSEROLE

Salmon Casserole

Dear Recipe Goldmine Friends,

I've been doing a lot of cooking these past few days. That coupled with the fact that I took my kids out and played hide-and-seek with them for a couple of hours this afternoon didn't leave me much time or energy to cook anything fancy.

I decided at the last minute to make this casserole as an experiment of sorts. It actually turned out really well. I think you'll really like it too. Please do not feel intimidated by the lack of exact measurements in this recipe. As long as you remotely follow the directions, you can't possibly go wrong--trust me! Enjoy!

Regards, Cookin' Dad

1 (6 ounce) can salmon
About 2 cups cooked elbow macaroni noodles
1 can cream mushroom soup
About 3/4 cup LOW SODIUM chicken broth
1 cup celery, diced
1/2 medium bell pepper, diced
1/2 large onion, minced
5 good sized garlic cloves, minced (I used garlic press)
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (maybe a little less)
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon dry dill (maybe a bit more)
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
At least 1 cup crushed FLAVORED Ruffles

Preheat oven to 360 degrees F.

Cook your noodles until slightly-crisp-done.
