The inspiration for
this recipe came from one of my favorite casserole recipes, chile relleno
casserole. I added rice and hamburger to it and it was really good! My family
enjoyed it very much. I served refried beans
and a salad with it.
Beef & Rice Chile Relleno Casserole
1 lb hamburger
½ onion, chopped
2 – 7oz cans chopped green chilies
5 cups cooked brown rice
3 to 4 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup milk
2T whole wheat flour
4 eggs
½ t salt
In a large frying pan cook hamburger and onion until meat is no longer pink
and onions are soft. Add the chopped green chilies and brown rice. Stir to
combine ingredients. Spoon hamburger rice mixture into a 9x13 pan that has
been sprayed with non-stick spray. Sprinkle grated cheese over the top.
In a bowl combine with a wire whip the milk, flour, eggs & salt. Pour this
mixture over the casserole. Bake at 325 for 45 minutes.
