Ground Beef, Veggie &Amp; Rice Bake

Ground Beef, Veggie &Amp; Rice Bake


1. Cook the rice according to package directions.

2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet cook ground beef, celery & onion until beef is brown & veggies are tender (drain fat).

3. Trim the ends from the zucchini & cut it in half lengthwise then slice crosswise. You can use any veggie(s) really, I like this with grilled peppers myself.

4. In a 13x9x2 inch baking dish combine meat mixture, rice, zucchini, tomatoes, milk, mushrooms, soup mix, basil & pepper (I tend to add chili powder too). Mix well.

5. Bake, covered, at 375 for 30-35 minutes or until heated through.

6. You may add the shredded cheddar during the last few minutes of cooking or use as a topping before serving.

7. Stir before serving.
