Sausage meat can be used in place of the ground beef, and any small pasta can be substituted for the macaroni. If you like more chili flavor then add in a couple tablespoons of chili powder. I have even added in some red kidney beans and sliced green olives to this casserole, but that is optional.

CASSEROLE: Take a 2 1/2 quart casserole dish and spray it with cooking spray then add 1/2 of the macaroni. Crumble 1 can of corned beef over macaroni and sprinkle 1/2 of the onion on top of that along with 1/8 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper.. Now make another layer of macaroni and place the 2nd can of corned beef and the rest of the onion on top as before. Sprinkle the last 1/8 teaspoon of salt and the 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Now pour the white sauce over casserole and poke holes through casserole with a knife so that the sauce permeates the casserole. Add cayenne pepper at this time if desired and top with the crumbled crackers. Place in the preheated oven for 30 minutes to complete dish.
