    Real Simple

    Recipe Introduction


    Campers Casserole is simple to bring together and I could totally imagine it being cooked in a Dutch-oven over a campfire. Since I was home, I used my trusty casserole dish. You may want to salt & pepper this dish to your taste. My husband and son enjoyed this dinner with ketchup on top. It was very filling and I enjoyed trying this new recipe. But I'll be honest, it needed an extra spice, maybe oregano or cumin or maybe a green bell pepper?

    List of Ingredients




    Camper Casserole



    1 pound extra lean ground beef
    1 medium onion, chopped
    2 garlic cloves, minced
    1 teaspoon chili powder
    1 1/2 cups cooked rice
    1 can (14oz) or 2 cups kidney beans or pinto, drained and rinsed
    1 bigger can (28oz) diced tomatoes, pureed or use tomato sauce
    1 cup cheddar cheese, grated

    Recipe





    HEAT OVEN 350ºF.

    In a large pan or Dutch oven over medium heat, brown the beef, onion and garlic. Season with chili powder. Stir in cooked rice then transfer mix to a greased 13-inch by 9-inch casserole dish.

    Add one layer of beans then pour on pureed tomatoes. Bake, covered, for 40 minutes. Uncover, sprinkle with cheese. Return to oven and bake, uncovered for 10 minutes or so, until cheese is melted.
