EASY beef casserole
Posted By: Barbara on 2008-02-06
In Reply to: I have 3 lbs of ground beef, and... - I don't know what to make
Use 2 pkg. of Jiffy cornbread mix and mix according to directions. If you don't have that in your area, it is a 'sweet' cornbread mix. Brown 1-1/2 pounds of g. beef and mix in bowl with some mild salsa or 14 oz. can tomatoes, chopped, and a can of pinto beans. Pour that in your casserole dish and then cover with the cornbread mix. My 3 year old twins love it. If you just use the tomatoes you could add some chopped onion to the beef when you brown it. Just bake it for about 20 minutes or until the cornbread turns golden brown. this is great with a salad or green beans

Got a creamed dried beef question. Do you find it best to saute the dried beef in the butter and
then add all the rest or do the cream part first and then add the dried beef at the end. Seems like both ways are in the recipes and just wondered which gets the best.
If do beef first, sauce should have more of a beef

I have a bag of beef
 strips and one of chicken strips, both made in China - do you know if the stores are giving refunds or anything? Thanks!
Where's the beef?
That is what I think that cute little doggie is thinking. My dog Misty likes to look at dog pictures on the internet and she finds him (or her) most attractive and she is mesmerized by that food can. Sometimes I let her watch the dog videos on U-Tube when we are bored. My husband thinks we are crazy, but he thinks it is funny watching Misty watch the other dogs. She even barks back if they bark, they are like virtual doggie playmates!
Beef!

Beef stroganoff
What I do is get the Lipton (or store brand) stroganoff mix, and add a bit of Worchestershire sauce and mushrooms and sour cream to the mix as it is heating up -- easy and it tastes -- extemely elegant as well - in fact, I am going to make a batch later :)
beef stew
I make it in a crock pot all day, but prep time is a breeze... Be forewarned. I don't measure anything. Amounts will depend on preference (more meat/less vegies, thicker vs thinner stew, etc)
Use stew meats or rump roast or whatever meat you want in it. Put the meat in the crock pot early in the morning. Should be done around noon. If large meat, take out and cut up (easire if you let it cool a while). If stew cuts, leaving it is fine. Peel and quarter potatoes (the smaller they are, the faster they'll cook, add to broth, and dump in a bag of baby carrots (onions are good,too, if the kids'll eat 'em). Let them cook a few hours until soft (mid to late afternoon). Add envelope of beef stew seasoning mix and a handful of flour. Stir as well as you can. If you used a meat other than beef (like Boston butt), add beef bullion cubes (and lots of them). Add back the meat. Add a can of mixed vegies. (Harder to stir once the vegies and meat are added back in) Check it every 1/2 hour to hour, adding flour to desired thickness. When you're happy, turn of crock pot, but let it sit so it stays hot. Salt and pepper to taste. Dinner's ready. Add water to leftovers because it will REALLY thicken when cold.
I've tasted better, but I'm always asked to bring this to put lucks, etc, because people seem to love it, and it's really simple to make, taking up very little of my time. If you forget to thaw the meat the night before, it will come out kind of tough, but is still pretty good if the cuts are decent.
luv beef stew
i used cubed up beef for stew or a roast. dip cut up meat in flour, put in crockpot, add carrots, onions, potatoes, celery and one can of diced tomato. add one or two packs of dried onion soup mix and two or three bay leaves, one or two cans of beef broth and one or two cans of beef gravy. cook for 6 or 7 hours on low. add cornstarch to thicken to taste. you can also make dumplings out of flour, milk, sugar and egg and add to the stew and that is so yummy
Beef stew
OK people....stop it with the beef stew....I only have 1 hour left to work.....trying to finish before I eat anything and then....go to sleep......but oh my goodness.....it SOUNDS SOOOOOO GOOD!!!!!!.....thanks for the recipe 
I have 3 lbs of ground beef, and...
Personally, I could eat cheeseburgers every night, but the boys are pretty tired of that. And I'm tired of all the other 'regulars' like meatloaf and tacos, and even shepherd's pie. What else is quick and somewhat simple that is 'throw-together' from the pantry?
Of course, my 4-year-old is finicky, and I usually give him the options of eating whatever I make or going hungry, but hopefully I'll get some suggestions that might be up his alley, too.
Thanks to all - beef was so good
Marinated 2 hours and it was good. We only ate half so will have other half tomorrow and then will see what it's like when we marinate 24 hours. This was kikkoman teriyake sauce (sp?) It was so delicious and will be doing this more. Thanks to all for the time length to marinate.
I have 1 lb of ground beef in the
fridge and expect my husband to call any time now to ask "what's for dinner". Any ideas? Yesterday I suggested taco salad, chili mac, chili and plain ole hamburgers but all got vetoed. Of course, he had no suggestions to help me out.
grass fed beef
Another good way to get your B vitamins is beef, but I got REALLY lumpy when I ate corn finished beef, grass fed is leaner than chicken.
Ground beef
Ground beef
Tator tots
french style greenbeans - drained really well
cream of mush. soup diluted with milk enough to pour over top
Brown ground beef with your favorite seasonings.
Spray bottom of a baking dish with pam, layer with tator tots, spread green beans over that, then ground beef and top with cream of mush soup bake til hot and bubbly.
leftover roast beef
I've had roast beef sandwiches for three days. Can I make the roast beef into something that I can freeze and eat later?
Roast beef hash is always a hit here.

Squash casserole
Here is one I get harrassed to cook every Thanksgiving, it is really good.
Squash Casserole.
2 pounds yellow summer squash.
3 grated carrots.
1 good-sized onion, chopped
1 can cream of celery soup.
1 small bag Pepperidge farm herb-stuffing.
1 egg
1 8 oz container of sour cream.
1 cup grated cheddar cheese.
1 cup melted butter.
Slice and boil the squash gently but don't cook it to death. (Squash is always better if you slice it up, salt it and let it sit out about 30 minutes before cooking). When squash is done, drain water and mash with a fork. Add the chopped onion and the carrots. Put in beaten egg but temper if first so you don't get scrambled eggs. Then add the can of soup and the sour cream mix well, add cheese Put in enough Pepperidge farm to your liking, I would guess I start with about 2 cups. Mix well. S & P to taste. Put in lightly greased 13 x 9 pan. Take about another cup of Pepperidge Farm and put it in melted butter, this is the topping. Or sometimes I just put plain Pepperidge Farm and put the cheese on top instead of in the dish. Bake at 350 for about 35 minutes.
Potato casserole
This is my funeral potatoes recipe which does contain cheese, but I see no reason why you can't adjust a recipe to your preference. I do it all the time when recipes have ingredients that I don't like. I'm thinking you could replace the cheese with cream of mushroom soup or cream of potato soup. Go for it. Don't be afraid to make a recipe your own!
* 6 medium potatoes, boiled
* 1 pint sour cream
* 1 cup cheddar cheese, grated
* 1 bunch green onions, chopped
* 2 tablespoons butter
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 1/2 teaspoon pepper
* 2 tablespoons milk

Ooeygooey casserole (sm)
I came up with this when we were building our house. We both were working jobs, as well as working on the house, and I just threw some stuff in the pan and it worked!!
Ingredients:
- One package frozen southern style hash browns (the cubed kind)
- One can each cream of mushroom soup and cream of chicken soup (the small cans)
- One package shredded cheese of your choice
- One sleeve Ritz-style crackers
- One half stick butter or margarine
- 2-3 cups of broccoli florets (enough to make a layer). I use frozen.
- One package ready-serve bacon or leftover ham.
- Salt, pepper, garlic powder to taste.
Oven: 375 preheated.
Pan: 9 x 13 baking dish, sprayed with non-stick.
Layer as follows: Potatoes, salt, pepper, garlic powder, mushroom soup and cream of chicken (the small cans don't quite cover the entire thing if you use just one, so I alternate and then go back and "mush" it around a bit), then half the cheese, then the broccoli. Add the ham or bacon.
Melt the butter and crush in the sleeve of crackers. Add the rest of the cheese. Blend well and crumble over top of casserole. Cover with foil.
Bake at 375 until center is bubbling. Take foil off for last few minutes to brown up top. I am guessing that it takes about 60-90 minutes, as I just kind of throw it in and pull it out of the oven when it is done.
I get more requests for this from folks than for anything else I fix. It will last for days, and can be done with leftover meat. I would imagine turkey or chicken would work just as well as the pork.
Hope you like it.

Hashbrown casserole?
sounds good. Mind sharing the recipe?
Hasbrown Casserole
Mine is very easy. You need:
1 bag cubed frozen hash browns 2 lb size
1/2 stick margarine
8 oz sharp cheddar cheese shredded
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cream of mucshroom soup
16 oz sour cream
1 c milk
1 small chopped onion
salt and pepper
Thaw the hash browns for 2 hours or overnight in fridge. Melt margarine and pour over hashbrown in a large bowl and set aside. In a separate bowl mix soup, sour cream, and milk. Mix soup mixture into hashbrowns. Add cheese, onion, and salt and pepper to taste. Bake in a greased (I use margarine) 13 x 9 pan at 350 degrees for about 1 hour 15 minutes, more or less depending on the oven. Cover with foil to bake. Let cool for at least 15 minutes before eating, will thicken up as they cool.
Almost everyone likes these. They're great to take to a potluck too.
Breakfast Casserole
Does anyone have any good breakfast casserole recipes? We are having a potluck breakfast at church on Sunday and I'm looking for ideas. Thanks!
Breakfast Casserole
That sounds yummy! Thanks!
Roast Beef and Sauce in Crock Pot
Any kind of roast, but works well with eye roast. You can pan oil quick fry it to seal in moisture, but I have cooked this without pan searing as well.
Stir together, 1/2 cup soy sauce, 2 tbsp ground garlic, 1/4 cup of oil, 4 tbsp vinegar, and about 1 tsp of ground ginger.
Pour over roast and cook in the crockpot. Depending on the size, I would do high for a while, and then down to low. About 8 hours or so. I've made this both in the crockpot and in the oven, so time varies. 
I use my leftover roast beef for tacos! nm

Cheeseburger and fries casserole
Made this earlier in the week and my guys loved it
1.5 lbs ground beef
1 small onion chopped
1 can cream of mushroom
1 can cheddar cheese soup
16 oz frozen french fries
1 lb grated cheddar cheese
Brown ground beef and onions then add soups and mix thoroughly. Add salt, pepper, garlic salt to taste. place in 9x13 pan and top with fries. Bake in 375 oven for 25-30 minutes until fries start to brown. Top with cheese and return to oven for 5-10 minutes until cheese is melted.
To lighten this up, use lean ground beef, healthy request soups and low fat cheese.
Breakfast casserole sides.
1. Biscuits with assorted jams and preserves, perhaps a sausage gravy boat.
2. Baked cheese grits or fried grits.
3. Cinnamon rolls/assorted pastries.
4. Blueberry or orange-cranberry muffins.
5. Hash browns or potatoes O'Brien.
6. Sausage patties.
Here's my favorite breakfast casserole
No bread, croutons or crescent rolls --
1 lb of ground sausage with peppers and onions
1 bag of shredded hashbrowns (get the ones with peppers/onions and save yourself some work)
8 eggs beat with 1/4 c of milk, salt & pepper to taste
Layer hashbrowns first. Pour egg mixture over.
Combine 3/4 can of cream of mushroom or chicken soup, 1/4 c of milk, and 4 ounces of sour cream.
Add browned sausage to the above soup mixture and 1/2 c shredded cheese. Layer over eggs & hashbrowns.
Refrigerate overnight. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Take out and add 1/4 c of shredded cheese and return to oven for an additional 15 minutes.
It's not as complicated as it sounds. My husband and I can whip this up in about 20 minutes. It's better the second day when we just reheat it because it sets up better. You can serve it with salsa if you like. We got this off of allrecipes.com and just tweaked it to our personal likes.
open faced roast beef sandwiches
Not so great for dieters, but heck, every now and then a little diet cheating is good. Toast up some bread, shred the roast over it, top with mashed potatoes (the real ones!), douse in brown gravy - instant comfort food.
I love fall - beef stew & cherry pie nm

Beef stroganoff over fettucini, broccoli, dinner rolls.

DOUBLING STRING BEAN CASSEROLE sm
Has anyone ever doubled Stringbean casserole? I look on the internet and could not find a recipe. I usually make it in to separate casserole dishes but I would rather just make it one but I don't want to waste the ingredients if it does not come out right.
TIA and HAPPY THANKSGIVING
Be careful using it with a frozen casserole. I bought
the casserole. It said to bake it on a cookie sheet, so I pulled out my stone. The stone broke into 3 pieces during cooking, so I learned never to do that again. I have 2, one is black because it has been used so much, but I love them. I just don't put anything frozen solid on them anymore, including biscuits. I am probably paranoid, but after the first one I have broke like that, I feel it is just better safe than sorry.
Oops, meant hashbrown casserole (nm)

Egg, Sausage, Cheese casserole recipe
Does anyone have an egg, sausage and cheese casserole recipe that does not include bread, croutons or crescent rolls? I found one the other and thought I printed it but did not. Now I can't find it again. Thanks!
Craving beef and bean burritos tonight. Any good recipes?
TIA!
I shred the beef and saute with a little finely diced onion and butter,
then add a bit of flour to make a roux and brown that lightly. Then warm milk to "cream" it. I like a bit of good paprika, sometimes the hot variety, at the end.
I've quadrupled it! Look up Green bean casserole....
and make sure to have a happy, happy Thanksgiving!! Yummmmm my favorite veggie dish you're making....yummm yummmm *laughs*
ENJOY!!
