Shipwreck
----------
2 large onions, sliced thin
3 medium potatoes, sliced thin
1 pound ground beef - raw
1/2 cup long grain rice - raw
1 cup celery, chopped (or frozen mixed veggies)
salt and pepper

1 can condensed cream of tomato soup
1 can measure of hot water
Whisk these two together in a separate bowl.
----
Use a 2 L/qt. casserole dish or roaster.
Put onions on bottom, salt and pepper. Next the potatoes, salt and pepper.
Pat the ground beef overtop, fit to cover potatoes, don't push down too hard on it. Sprinkle with salt and pepper (I add garlic powder, too).
Sprinkle on the rice, then the celery (or veggies).

Pour the soup and water mixture on overtop - you can poke meat with a knife so most goes through.
Bake covered at 350 degrees for two hours.
(Can skim off grease around edges with spoon if you use regular ground beef)

Wow. Now THAT looks interesting, Natalka!
The ground beef: it's not sauteed first?

[Natalka]

Nope, raw ground beef - I'll add that mention to the recipe.
That is what makes it time saving!

Lazy Cabbage Rolls Casserole
(with or without meat)

1 cup rice (short grain is best, but long is okay)
2 cups water
1 teaspoon salt, few shakes pepper
1 Tablespoon margarine
----
1 medium onion, chopped
3 Tablespoons margarine
(option - 1 pound lean ground beef)
3 cups shredded cabbage
1 can tomato soup; 1 can water
salt, pepper, dill

Cook rice the way you usually do. I nuke mine.
In a dutch oven, cook onion in margarine til softened. (If using ground beef, add now and cook til pink is gone.)
Add cabbage, stir around, and keep cooking and mixing maybe five minutes til it wilts a bit.
Add salt and pepper to taste; I also add several shakes of dill.

Put this in a 9x13 baking dish, add cooked rice and mix together well. Add a can of tomato soup, and a can of water, and mix all together.

Cover with foil. Bake 350 degrees about 45 minutes. Uncover, let sit 5 minutes. Mix and serve!

O.K. natalka...

The lazy cabbage rolls are in the casserole dish baking, just 20 min. or so left. My DH asked if I needed help to make it when I told him what I was going to make for dinner. I said yes, yes yes! Apparently I am even lazier than I first thought. I'll let you know how we all like it.

Wow!

You were right, it is easy to make. I am glad I snapped this quick pic as soon as it came out. I snuck a taste, it reminds me of what we make called Spanish Rice, kind of.

I love casseroles... a good tip- it's just as easy to make 2 as it is to make 1 so make an extra and freeze it. It's great for days you don't feel like cooking, just take it out and pop it in the oven Here's one of my favorites:

Chicken, Broccoli and Rice Casserole

4 servings of instant brown rice
4 small chicken breasts
approx 1c. frozen or fresh (cooked) broccoli
cheese
bread crumbs
2 cans cream of mushroom soup
garlic powder

Cook chicken for about 30-45 minutes. Prepare bread crumbs while you're waiting.
Crush crackers (I use ritz or cheese crackers) in baggie with garlic
salt to taste. Set aside. Cook rice and broccoli. Cut chicken into bite size pieces.
In a casserole dish mix chicken, broccoli, rice, soup, garlic powder to taste, salt, pepper and as much cheese as you want. Top with grated cheeese and spread bread crumbs on top.
Cook in 350 degree oven, uncovered, for 30 minutes. Let sit for about 5 minutes and then dig in!

Well no pictures available as most of the casserole is eaten, but it started out as I was trying to find a way to " use " the 24 or so leftover cheese tea biscuits I had made to go with a big pot of chili.
I boiled 2 1/2 bags of the whole wheat egg noodles, and made a casserole by mixing in 2 cans clam/seafood chowder, 2 jars of the alfredo white sauce, 3/4 bags of sweetlet peas, and a bag of cooked shrimp.
Then I placed the biscuits 4 across by 5 down into the mixture, sort of sinking them into it. Covered well with foil, baked maybe 1 hr.
Every serving had a " dumpling" style tea biscuit in it.
Nice combo I found the taste of the seafood and the cheddar cheese.
