Ground Beef Chow mein noodle casserole

I found this recipe in an old church club cookbook. The original name for the casserole is Ching-A-Ling, but that names seems rather offensive to me.

INGREDIENTS

1 pound ground beef or turkey

1 cup cut up celery

1 small onion

1 cup water

1 can cream of mushroom soup

1 can cream of chicken soup

7-8 ounce package chow mein noodles

1 soup can water

DIRECTIONS

Brown the meat, pour off fat and add celery, onion and water. Simmer for 15 minutes.

Mix with undiluted soup, 1 soup can water and the noodles. Pour into casserole dish.

Bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees.
