Ground Beef and Wild Rice Casserole
Pour 4 cups of boiling water over 1 cup uncooked wild rice and let stand fifteen minutes.
Drain and add 1 can mushroom soup, 1 can Cream of Chicken Soup, 1 large can sliced mushrooms (drained), 2 beef bouillon cubes dissolved in one cup of boiling water, 1 bay leaf, crumbled, and season to taste with celery salt, garlic salt, pepper, onion salt, and paprika...about 1/4 tsp. of each.
Saute 3/4 cup chopped celery and 6 Tbsp. chopped onion in butter until transparent and add to the above mixture.
Brown 1 1/2 pounds of ground beef, drain and add to the mixture.
Put into a casserole, sprinkle with one-half cup slivered almonds, and refrigerate until time to bake. Bake, covered for 1 1/2 hours at 350 degrees. (Add more bouillon if it becomes dry while baking.)
Serves 10.
-------------------------------
I think I would like this one, but when I try it I think I'll leave off the almonds, or just put them on half of the casserole to see how they are.
