My family&#039;s favorite hamburger rice casserole is a filling dinner with fluffy rice, juicy ground beef, and veggies cooked in cream of mushroom soup. It&#039;s a Midwest classic!

onion (finely chopped)

celery

mushroom soup

soy sauce

water (or beef broth)

Chow Mein Noodles (optional topping)

Preheat oven to 350º F. Spray a 3 qt casserole dish with non-stick spray. Set aside.

In a large skillet brown ground beef and onion over medium high heat. Break apart the ground beef and cook for 5-6 minutes until the onions are soft and the meat is mostly cooked. Add the celery and continue to cook until the beef is cooked through. Drain away any excess grease.

Mix in the mushroom soup and soy sauce until everything is evenly combined.

Add the rice and water and pour into prepared dish. Cover and bake for about 60 minutes until the rice is cooked through and tender.

Remove from the oven and serve with crispy chow mein noodles and additional soy sauce if desired.

I followed the recipe to the "T" and when the casserole was done and I had a chance to taste test it, I found that it could definitely use a little more seasoning. Like maybe either seasoning the meat or just adding a little more soy sauce. Great recipe otherwise, would make it again with either of those adjustments. :)

My rice never got done. Cooked it well over an hour.

This was so good, and yes I will make it again. Everyone loved it. I used water and added Better Than Bouillon Beef paste, because I didn't have beef broth.

This was so good, and yes I will make it again. Everyone loved it.

I have not made this yet.  However my Mom used to make something so similar to this when I was growing up and it was my favorite with buttered bread.  I am so excited to have found this…….my family referred to it as “Uncle Bill’s recipe”, no idea why since there has never been a Bill in my family.  Thank you!!!!

Delicious! Easy and simple. I subbed green bell pepper and used up some shallots and it did not disappoint. Thanks for sharing!

Making this for a second time tonight, very tasty, perfect with a side salad!

A cheesy, comforting ground beef and rice casserole with just 10 minutes of hands-on prep. No need to brown the meat or boil the rice first. Just dump, stir, and let the oven do the work for an easy weeknight dinner.

Dump-and-Bake Ground Beef Casserole with Rice

(28 ounce) can diced tomatoes, (drained)

(10.75 tomato soup

white rice

Worcestershire sauce

garlic

Italian seasoning

Kosher salt and ground black pepper,

mozzarella cheese

Parmesan cheese

parsley

Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray a 9 x 13 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.

In the prepared dish (or in a large bowl), use your fingers to crumble uncooked ground beef into small pieces.

Add tomatoes, tomato soup, beef broth, uncooked rice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, Italian seasoning, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.

Cover tightly with foil. Bake for 55-60 minutes (or until the rice is tender). During the final 5 minutes of cooking, remove the dish from oven, uncover, and fluff the rice with a fork. At this point the rice should be almost tender (but not quite done). If it&#39;s still too firm, cover again and return to the oven. Sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan.

Place back in the oven (uncovered) for the final 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the rice is perfectly tender. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired.

As a lazy person, I love this! Truly a dump and bake where I don't have to pre-cook the meat! Never had a casserole before, but I did make some tweaks, so that may still be the same lol.

What I did differently: Used a brownie baking pan, Chicken broth, Added Corn, Added Kidney Beans, Skipped Adding Cheese, Used store-bought marinara sauce, Skipped the Sauce.

Seasonings I used: Goya seasoning packets, Onion powder, Garlic powder, Italian Seasoning, Paprika, and Black pepper.

Flavor was great, Thank You for posting.  My only subs were ground turkey and condensed cream of chicken.
Next batch I will add more meat, leave bigger chunks to get this casserole closer to an entree and start checking at 45 minutes (used a smoked glass 9 X 13 )

I made this last night using Impossible Burger as my son is vegan. Made the recipe exactly as listed and it was a huge hit. So easy not even having to brown the meat. Quick, easy and my family loved it. What more do you need. Thanks for the recipe!

Super easy and delicious! I used regular 80/20 ground beef and did not cook it prior to mixing everything together. It turned out perfectly.

Found this on search for recipe using some already mixed ground beef with uncooked rice I had. What a great find. Worked perfectly and so many possibilities for variations. Thanks!
