Chow Mein Hot Dish
Ingredients
- 1 l/2 lb. ground beef, ground pork, or turkey (leaner the better)
- 1 large onion, diced
- 1 C. celery, chopped
- 2 cans cream of mushroom soup
- 1 can chicken rice soup
- 1 pkg. frozen mixed vegetables, or Chinese vegetable stir-fry package, cooked, water reserved
- 2 C. chow mein noodles
- 1 Tbs. soy sauce
- 1 small can mushroom pieces
Directions
Spray fry pan with Pam. Brown meat and onions. Add the celery, soups, precooked vegetables with water, the soy sauce, mushrooms and 1 C. of chow mein noodles. Mix well. Spray casserole with Pam, add the cooked mixture. Cover top of casserole with remaining C. of chow mein noodles. Bake 350 degree for 1 hour.
Note: I often wing this by using fresh vegetables, as green beans, bean sprouts, bok choy, mushrooms, etc. Instead of using the creamed soups, I add 1 C. of uncooked long grained rice and 2 cans of chicken or beef broth. Follow recipe's directions for noodles and baking.
