This casserole will always have a special place in my heart. I love how this is packed with juicy ground beef and noodles in a cheesy Manwich sauce with tomatoes and corn. Prep everything in a pot, shift into a casserole, pop in the oven, and voila! The best Sloppy Joe Casserole in history is born.
