If you're like me you spend most of the day trying to think "What's for dinner?". Sometimes I want to try something new or even just remember a good family favorite. I created this blog as a quick and easy way to help jog my memory and to share our family favorites across the web. My sister-in-law Marie and I post some of our most successful recipes with pictures. Bon Appetite!

Chinese Casserole



Even though this dish takes about an hour to come together I remember it as one of my favorites as a kid.

1 lb ground beef
1 chopped onion
2 stalks of celery chopped
1 cup rice
1 can cream of chicken soup
La Choy Chow Mein Noodles

We use an electric frying pan for this recipe. Brown the ground beef with the chopped onion and celery, drain and rinse if needed. Add rice and cook until rice is brownish. Add soup, then reuse can with water adding two cans of water. Stir all together, bring to a simmer, cover and cook on low until rice is cooked. if needed add more water to keep from getting too dry. When the casserole is cooked you can add chow mein noodles to individual portions as a topping.
