Easy Potluck Beef and Noodle Bake

I found this recipe here, but altered it some for my family.

Ingredients:

1 pound lean ground beef
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 1/2 teaspoons celery salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 cups fine noodles, about 4 ounces (uncooked) - I use thin spaghetti or regular spaghetti broken into about 1 inch pieces
1 can (about 15 ounces) cream-style corn
1 can (10 3/4 ounces) condensed cream of chicken or cream of mushroom soup
1 soup can of water

Preparation:

In a skillet, brown ground beef, breaking up into chunks. Drain off grease; stir in onion powder, garlic powder, celery salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, for about 3 minutes. Spoon mixture into a greased 2-quart baking dish. Top with the uncooked noodles. Combine corn, soup, and water in a saucepan or microwave safe bowl. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly, or microwave stirring every minute or so. Pour sauce over noodles; stir gently so sauce will flow down to bottom and cover ingredients evenly. Cover dish and bake at 350° for 45 to 60 minutes, until noodles are tender.
