mac and cheese casserole

I found this years ago on a box, and my kids loved it. It's still my grown son's favorite meal! It's quick, easy and inexpensive. And it tastes great! If you prefer not to use a microwave, you can skip the that step and just add the soup/hot dogs to the mac and cheese in the pan and heat them, but you have to be careful not to burn them, since there's not a lot of liquid in the mix. Or, you could put it into the casserole dish, and then bake it until warm. Since I've never done that, I don't know that temp/time needed.
