This casserole is so easy to make, and so good to eat. My picky husband had a second helping!

This casserole has potential to be really good, yet it's missing something. I definitely recommend baking for an hour and a half otherwise the meat doesn't get completly done, and it's real mushy. I don't plan to make it again.

This recipe needs a little spice - too bland. It takes longer than an hour to cook the rice in the dish. Won't make the recipe again.

I used precooked ground beef and brown rice...really good also did it with minute rice and that only took a half hour to cook. The brown rice was longer. It is very tasty and easy.

When I made this I browned the beef on top of the stove first, but I still cooked it for the same amount of time. It was great and it was also VERY left-over friendly.

My husband and I thought this was a delicious and filling dish. We cooked the ground beef before assembling the casserole and it turned out great.

I have a very similar recipe called Dirty Rice Casserole. It calls for the addition of 2 tsp. minced garlic and Tabasco sauce to taste. I don't brown the meat first, but do find that after about one hour in the oven it is necessary to stir the casserole to break up the ground meat and ensure even cooking. Bake for 1/2 hour more and you have a super-easy meal.

Used pre-cooked hamburger and doubled the veggies. After a hour the dish came out dry tasting and not much flavor. Easy to make but not that exciting.

Great dish! My family asks for this all the time. I do not cook the meat first but crumble into baking dish and pour the mixture over the top. In the last 5 minutes of baking I cover with shredded colby and monterey jack cheese. I also use instant rice and it comes out perfectly every time.
