Cheesy Beef and Rice Casserole
The other night I wanted to make something new, but I didn’t have time to go to the store. Thanks to couponing, I have a decent stockpile and was able to put this Cheesy Beef and Rice Casserole together. I knew my family would love it – we love anything cheesy!
Ingredients:
1lb ground beef
1 onion, diced
2 tsp garlic powder
1 small can tomato sauce
1 cup frozen or 1 can corn (or a veggie of your choosing)
1 cup cooked rice
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
salt, pepper, oregano
Directions:
- Brown ground beef with onion and garlic powder
- Add tomato sauce, corn, rice, broth, and 1 cup cheese and simmer about 3 minutes
- Transfer to a casserole dish and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes
- Top with 1 cup cheese and return to oven.
- Bake 15 minutes allowing cheese to melt.
- Remove and enjoy!
It was delicious! Our family ate every bite including my two-year old and four-year old. That’s impressive!

love the recipe really great I also try to use my stockpile in my recipes thanks for sharing visiting from inspiration monday
This looks really good. I was just thinking today that I need to make rice more often. Good way to use it! Pinned. Blessings, Diane
Oh my- this looks yummy! Looks like a great comfort food, too.
Thanks for sharing at Motivation Monday 🙂
Stopping by from the Making Monday link party. This picture caught my eye and, sure enough, I love the recipe! I’m pinning so I can try it out here soon. Thanks for sharing!
Ran across this recipe and it looked really good. I was running late at the office, so whipped this up for dinner when I got home and it was a big hit! Thank you so much! And by the way — what font did you use on the title of the ribbon on the picture. I really like it (I do a lot of digital graphic work), and if I don’t already have that one, I would love to know the name so I can get it to add to my collection =)
Anyway — thanks again for the recipe!
Glad you liked it, Wanda!! I’d have to look, but I found it in PicMonkey if that helps. 🙂
Hello! Going to try this recipe!! Is it 1 cup of cooked rice OR 1 cup of raw rice then cooked to 3 cups? Thanks!
This will be the second time I’ve made this, it was delicious. Tonight I’m adding taco seasoning instead of garlic powder and fries some fresh garlic with the meat and onions. It’s in the oven now hope its as good as I think it will be!
Cooked rice it says
How long did it take you from start to finish?
Hi Tish! I would say maybe 45 minutes since you’ll need to brown the hamburger.
This was a hit with my hubby. I added some drained Rotel tomatoes. Its was great.
Really great recipe! We like a little spice so we added extra garlic powder and hot sauce! Yum!
