This is a quick recipe using 'canned' spaghetti. We always ate in on Friday nights before we would go to the football games. It is also excellent when served the next day, as the flavors have a chance to mix.

CAMPFIRE AMERICAN CHOP SUEY



Campfire American Chop Suey image

This is the American Chop Suey that I was served growing up. Mom says it was one of her old Girl Scout recipes. Maybe I've become too much of a gourmet because if you ask me...about the only time I would think this was fabulous now is if I was camping, worked up a terrible appetite, and had this cooked over a fire in a cast iron skillet. Still, gotta have it once in a blue moon just for the memories. Once under the label of Franco-American, the canned spaghetti goes by strictly the name Campbell's.
