Cheesy Rice & Beef

When it’s just the two of you and you want something warm and filling without a mountain of leftovers, this is your recipe.

Cooked ground beef and rice get stirred into a quick sauce of tomato soup and milk, then poured into a baking dish and blanketed with shredded mozzarella.

Forty minutes later, you’ve got a bubbly, cheesy casserole that tastes like it took way more effort than it did.

It’s pure pantry-staple magic.

Kitchen Tips

• Brown and drain the beef well so the casserole doesn’t end up greasy
• Day-old rice works even better here since it’s drier and soaks up more of the tomato sauce
• Double the recipe and use a 9×13 pan when you need to feed a bigger crowd
