EASY SEVEN LAYER RICE CASSEROLE



Easy Seven Layer Rice Casserole image

Since there is no precooking the ground beef for this casserole it comes together quite easy, just layer ingredients and bake in just one dish, I always season the ground beef with seasoned salt, black pepper, fresh garlic and a few tablespoons of Parmesan cheese but that is only optional, you can even sprinkle cheddar cheese in the middle also when layering :)

7 LAYER CASSEROLE

Delicious!!-makes great leftovers. I am a very picky eater and I remember my stepmom serving this to us and we were hesitant to eat it--but once we tried, we all couldn't get enough! I always DOUBLE the recipe and add extra onions. Can use leftovers for stuffed peppers. My fav is use banana peppers instead and top with cheese.

Tips:

  • For a tastier casserole, use high-quality ground beef and fresh vegetables.

  • Use a variety of cheeses for a more flavorful casserole. Cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan are all good choices.
