Ingredients

Units

1 lb. hamburger (ground beef)
1 onion, chopped
2 cups celery, sliced
1/2 cup rice, uncooked
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup water
1 (4 oz.) can mushrooms
1 (10 3/4 oz.) can cream of mushroom soup
1 small can bean sprouts
1 small can sliced water chestnuts
Chinese noodles

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°.
  2. Brown the hamburger and onions in a frying pan.
  3. Mix all of the remaining ingredients except the Chinese noodles together into the hamburger (including the liquid from the mushrooms and bean sprouts).
  4. Place the mixture into a greased 9×9 inch baking pan.
  5. Bake for 1 1/2 hours.
  6. Top with the Chinese noodles.

Double the amount of the ingredients for a 9×13 inch pan.

Note: This recipe takes longer to cook because of the uncooked rice. You could use 1 1/2 cups of cooked rice but, if you do, don’t use the liquid from the mushrooms and bean sprouts. That will cut the cooking time in half.
  • Use Ramen noodles or instant rice in your casseroles. This makes preparation easier since you don’t need to cook these before you add them to the dish.
  • If you have time, roast your veggies before adding them to your casserole for some added flavor.
