jdouglas13, if you have trouble finding the Campbells Cream of Shrimp soup, look for it at HT. The HT in Alexandria, VA, is where I normally get mine and stock up a few cans when I am working up there. My Kroger in Cary doesn't sell it and I just don't think about going to one of the HTs in Cary because they aren't that close to me.

Tell your DW I wish her a belated Happy Birthday.

ascherer, thanks so much for your recipe for the shrimp casserole! Sounds yummy, and I'm looking forward to trying it! I also appreciate your hints for reheating.

Faye, thanks for the birthday wishes for my DW! :)

Thanks to everyone for sharing your meals and to ascherer for sharing the shrimp casserole recipe!

jdouglas - Happy Birthday to your DW! :-)

Jdouglas13 - Enjoy

4 oz egg noodles, 1 can Campbells Cream of Shrimp Soup, 3/4 cup milk, 1/2 cup Mayo, 1/4 cup celery (I use chopped drained waterchestnuts instead), 1 T chopped onion, 1/4 t salt, 1/3 cup cheddar cheese (I use more), 1 cup shrimp (I cut large shrimp into 3 piece), and 1/4 cup Chow Mein Noddles.

Other notes: I normally make a double or triple batch. I also freeze serving size containers. You have to be careful how you reheat it. If you can reheat on the stove, heat it until it is hot. If you try to reheat it in a microwave, heat it just enough to knock the chill off and come to room temp. Otherwise everyone around you has to smell it and the shrimp will be tough.

Cook the egg noodles. Cook the shrimp (I saute them with some ground black and red pepper). Mix everything except Chow Mein noddles together and bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes. Pull it out and top with chow mein noodles. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes longer and noddles are toasted.

ascherer, I truly feel for you with the long hours. I did that for too long with a 2 hour R/T commute and an 11 hour workday with no break for lunch. We were lucky anything made it on the table for dinner most nights.

Your double shrimp casserole sounds really good! Would you mind sharing the recipe?
