   • In a large skillet, melt the oleo (butter) over medium heat. Add the ground beef and onion, and brown until the beef is cooked through and the onion is translucent.

2. Drain Excess Grease:

   • Once the beef is browned, drain off excess grease from the skillet. You want to retain some for flavor, but removing the excess will prevent the dish from becoming too oily.

3. Add Tomatoes and Noodles:

   • To the skillet, add the canned tomatoes and noodles. Stir well to combine. Allow the noodles to cook until they are tender, adding a bit of water if necessary to prevent sticking.

4. Incorporate Corn and Olives:

   • Once the noodles are tender, add in the corn and sliced ripe olives. Stir to distribute evenly throughout the mixture.

5. Transfer to Casserole Dish:

   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 13×9-inch casserole dish. Transfer the noodle mixture from the skillet into the prepared casserole dish, spreading it out evenly.

6. Sprinkle with Cheese:

   • Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the top of the noodle mixture in the casserole dish. The cheese will melt and create a deliciously gooey topping as the casserole bakes.

7. Bake:

   • Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

8. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Once baked, remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve hot and enjoy the delightful flavors of this Beef & Corn Noodle Casserole!
