Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 cup uncooked rice long grain
  • 2 10.5 oz cans cream of celery soup
  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 2 tsp sea salt
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion

Instructions
 

  • First, brown the ground beef. Add in the onion while you are browning the meat. Then, drain well.
  • While browning the meat, preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a large bowl, mix together all the ingredients.
  • Next, pour into a greased 2 quart casserole dish. Cover the dish and place into preheated oven for 1 hour.
  • After an hour, remove the cover and stir with a fork.
  • Bake for another half hour.

Notes

    • The recipe calls for traditional long grain rice, however, you can substitute minute rice here. The cooking time will be less, so keep an eye on it.
    • You can also place buttered breadcrumbs on top when you fluff it with a fork before placing it back into the oven. It adds a little to it.
    • Some people choose to add the ground beef to the casserole without browning it. I prefer to brown it ahead of time, but I believe it can be done. Here is a link to the Testing Table website where they prefer to brown the meat ahead of time.
