WTH Do I Cook Tonight Dinner

1 lb hamburger
1 bag of egg noodles
1 can cream of mushroom soup (or celery, potato, etc)
spices to taste (we like dill or caraway added)
1 can of whole kernel corn

cook hamburger, drain fat off
cook noodles
add cream of mushroom soup, corn and hamburger
add enough water to dilute the soup but not make it a soupy mess
add spices


serve and reap in the praises
