Bavarian Kielbasa with Noodles

Here's an old soup can label recipe that's not as well known as the classic family "Chicken and Rice," but it's equally easy and satisfying.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 6 ounces egg noodles, uncooked
  • 3/4 lb. smoked kielbasa, cut up
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 1 can (10 3/4 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 soup can milk
  • 12 oz package frozen cut green beans
  • 1/8 tsp pepper
DIRECTIONS:
  • Cook noodles according to package directions; drain. Meanwhile, in a 10 inch skillet over medium heat, cook kielbasa and onion until browned, stirring often. Spoon off fat.
  • Add soup; stir until smooth. Gradually stir in milk. Add beans and pepper. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat to low. Cover; simmer 5 minutes or until beans are tender, stirring occasionally.
  • Stir cooked noodles into skillet. Heat 2 minutes, stirring often. Serve with spicy brown mustard (optional). Makes 6 cups or 4 servings.
