How to Make Olive Casserole

  1. Cook 1 pound egg noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown 1 pound ground beef and 1 cup chopped green bell pepper until cooked through. Drain any excess grease.
  3. In a large bowl, grate 2 cups cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup onion, and 2 cloves garlic.
  4. Add the cooked ground beef and green pepper mixture to the bowl along with 1 cup sliced olives (such as Kalamata or Castelvetrano).
  5. Stir in 1/4 cup olive brine, the cooked noodles, 1 (15-ounce) can of corn (drained), and 1 (14.5-ounce) can of diced tomatoes (undrained).
  6. Pour the mixture into a greased 13x9x2 inch casserole dish.
  7. Cover the casserole with aluminum foil.
  8. Bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 45-60 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly. Remove foil during the last 15 minutes to allow the top to brown slightly.
