How to Make African Supper

  1. Cook noodles according to package directions. Set aside.
  2. In a large skillet or 3-quart pan, brown the ground meat over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. If using fresh mushrooms, add them to the skillet and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
  5. Stir in the softened cream cheese, cream of mushroom soup, and milk. Stir until smooth and well combined.
  6. Add the frozen corn and canned mushrooms (if using).
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
  9. Stir in the cooked noodles (or rice). Simmer for another 5 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
  10. Serve immediately. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Add a little milk when reheating if needed.
