Very easy, quick and budget friendly. We were nearly out of food with no money for groceries when I saw this recipe, and thank goodness I did! Changes I made: I added a can of corn, some taco seasoning, and some chopped garlic when heating the soups. I stirred everything together and served that way (without baking). So quick and tasty for what it is!

My kids devour this. We use low fat cream of celery soup, turkey chili, and whole wheat pasta to try to keep it a tiny bit healthier. Everyone eats it up!

I've got to admit, when I first looked at this recipe I didn't think it looked very appetizing. But, it was late, boyfriend and I were really hungry and I'm really trying to avoid takeout/restaurants. I'm really glad I tried this! Like others have said, it's not gourmet or something you'd make for a dinner party, but it's very quick and very tasty, and the ingredients are usually sitting in the pantry. I used a chicken chili with beans, because that was what I had. I don't think I used a whole cup of cheddar cheese; I didn't really measure. While mixing the chili mixture I added liberal amounts of garlic and onion powder, just because that's what I usually do. I have a feeling this will pop up again soon!

The kids looooved it! I didn't bake it. Just mixed it all together in a big saute pan. It tasted slightly bland so I added a little tomato sauce and salt/pepper to taste. Speedy!!!

I made this last night and we thought it was pretty good. It's not a company dish, but great kid friendly dish. The only changes I made were to add a can of kidney beans and used "wagon wheel" shaped pasta.

We love this recipe. It's perfect for my three children, 7, 4, and 2. No one fusses about it, and we usually don't have any leftovers. Thank you!

I have attempted a chili mac before with basically a box of mac & cheese and a can of chili. It was okay. When I found this recipe I thought I would give it a go and it was very good. I used a Chunky Grilled Steak Chili which I think really perked this one up. It is definitely a good recipe when you don't have a lot of time or when chili and mushroom soup are all you have in your cupboard!! :D Very yummy.

Gourmet fare it is not, but my husband loved it; he even wants the leftovers, and he INSISTED I give it 5 stars. In his words, "this is my kind of food--pasta, meat & cheese"; OK I admit, I liked it too. I followed the recipe with these additions: about a half cup of the pasta liquid to the soup mixture, another 1/2 cup shredded cheese and some parmesan/romano cheese over the top before baking. Good recipe for a chilly evening Shirley--thanks!
