I changed a couple things to suit what i had on hand. I didn't have any condensed tomato soup, so I just left that out along with the brown sugar. I don't keep celery on hadn and was out of green peppers, so those had to be left out as well. Still very tasty and with some added seasonings and spices like garlic powder and chili powder it's a tastey and satisfying meal.

Very good simple recipe. My Children actually loved it even with diced tomatoes and green pepper. Would highly recommend this to anyone looking for something easy and different from what you usually make.

Met with great approval by the family, even the picky 8 year old who did NOT eat around the vegetables. Victory!

I did change it up a bit, I skipped the sugar, I wonder how that changed the grams of fat?

great basic recipe. I did do a few changes... used diced tomatoes with chilis, also added chili seasoning for a little added flavor. I agree with a previous reviewer and added the worchestershire sauce. Skipped the tomato paste and sugar because I don't dig sweet...

Recipe is very good as is, especially for kids. But if you want a little more kick, use a can of diced tomatoes with green chiles. Offsets perfectly with the sweet from the brown sugar.

I think something was wrong on the recipe... only 1 cup of macaroni and 2 cans of tomato soup and 2 cans of diced tomatoes... was more like soup.. not a bad taste, but was looking for something heartier

This was pretty good, made it for SUPERBOWL Sunday using ground reindeer meat (we ground it ourselves). Doubled the recipe and added 3 Tbsp chili powder to give it a chili taste. What I'd really like is the chili Mac recipe of the box of LARGE elbow macaroni, I believe it was Mission brand, but I threw the box out and can't find another like it. Does anyone know the recipe I'm talking about? Can't remember how it differed from this one but I know we really liked it. If anyone finds it, please let me know! Thanks.

I do not know what I did but this soup did not taste so good at first. I followed the recipe to a T and let the peper and celery simmer for an hour. the soup looked good but did not tast that good at first. I ended up adding a can of tomato juice to it and let it sit for a few hours and it tasted better. do not think that I will make again. I was the only one that tried it. after I added the juice and let it sit for a few hours it tasted better but from now on I will stick to the tried and true chili recipe that my family loves.
