Tallerine, talerine, tallerini...I’ve no idea of the spelling or origin of this vintage casserole but it remains a crowd pleaser yet today. I’ve tweaked my 70's recipe somewhat ~ it’s one of those recipes that adapts easily to variations.

    I grew up on a quicker version. using those tiny egg noodles. cook ground beef with onions, add tomato sauce and water, add the egg noodles and cook, add a small can of corn and those black olives, when noodles are tender throw cheese on and bake about 20 minutes. So many variations but I am still tired of this recipe since we ate it for years and my mom got this out of a cook book. Probobly from the 50;s.

        A friends Mom made something like this all the time. But she used whatever small pasta she had on hand rotini, ziti etc and instead on layering it she mixed it all together before baking and it was awesome. I like the layered idea. Looking forward to trying it!
