Mexican-Style Beef Casserole

    This was good and once the rice was done took no time to get this on the table. I did use the tomatoes since DH bought a hotter than we use salsa and my dish had more liquid then I would have liked. Next time I would add mild salsa, mild green chilies, the beans and seasonings then simmer for a bit. Mix in the rice and serve with more salsa, tortillas or chips, and sour cream.

    Mexican-Style Beef Casserole, From: The Bean Cookbook by Norma S Upson (1982) Hearty and filling Brown rice usually takes about 45 minutes so I’m including that in the cooking time *If you would like some heat or a chile flavor consider adding tabasco, jalapenos or diced mild green chilies I just made this with salsa instead of tomatoes and added black pepper I was very pleased with the results A simple flavored hearty meal I’m used to mexican dishes having cumin and it may work with this but I liked it being different and it may appeal to people who don’t like cumin I think black olives and bell pepper would be good in it too Some people may also want to add layers of cheese but I was really surprised at how good it was without it To cut down the fat more you could cook the onions with the ground beef and skip the butter , This was good and once the rice was done took no time to get this on the table I did use the tomatoes since DH bought a hotter than we use salsa and my dish had more liquid then I would have liked Next time I would add mild salsa, mild green chilies, the beans and seasonings then simmer for a bit Mix in the rice and serve with more salsa, tortillas or chips, and sour cream Made and reviewed for Kittencal’s Recipe Tag Game
