  1. Very quick and tasty! I added 1 tsp of Tony's seasoning to the meat as I cooked it just because I like the taste. I highly recommend this recipe! Thanks!
     
  2. This was so good and easy to make. I will definitely be making this again. I will have to make a bigger batch next time because they cleaned the pan out.
     
  3. Super easy to make and can't wait to eat the leftovers! I added seasoning salt, pepper, and garlic powder to ground turkey instead of how the recipe went. Very tasty!
     
  4. My kids loved it (5,3,and 1yo), my husband loved it, just a little different then what we're used to from a green bean tator tot casserole and its for the better. Alot of flavor, the 8 x 8 was GONE. Had to come back for the recipe again tonight and making a 9x13 this time. Not changing anything about the recipe, it was great!
     
  5. I made this Tuesday night for myself, my BF & son and REALLY enjoyed it. For being so simple, it had alot of flavor! 4 stars for taste but 5 for simplicity. BF & son gave it 5 for taste though. Thanks for sharing:)

  1. we really liked this dish. it's an easy casserol to change and add to.I added onions and celery when cooking groung beef. stirred 2 cans of soup into drained beef.1 cream of celery and 1 cream of chicken because thats what was in the cupboard.poured into 9 x 13. sprinkled with shredded cheese added green beans, topped with tater tots. this going in our favorites file. next time I might try with peas instead of green beans.
     
  2. Very good I substituted veggie crumbles for the beef and it turned out great!
     
  3. My husband likes this prepared with cream of mushroom or celery soup and using sausage instead of the hamburger. I usually do not add the shredded cheese. We don't have this often, but it is easy, comfort food for cold winter nights.
     

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

My all-time favorite cookbook is one from my childhood. It is the Betty Crocker Jr. cookbook and is just for kids. They have put out several new versions since then, but I still use the old one on occasion. The one I have is from the late 70's.
