Instructions

  1. 01

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a large skillet, cook and crumble the beef over medium heat until no longer pink. Drain and set aside. Editor's Tip: Browning ground beef ensures it's cooked through when baking the hot dish and provides extra flavor for the sauce.

  2. 02

    In the same skillet, saute the potatoes, celery, carrots, green pepper and onion in the butter for five minutes. Add the water. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. Stir in the soup and cooked ground beef until well-combined.

  3. 03

    Sprinkle half the chow mein noodles into a greased shallow 2-quart baking dish. Spoon the meat mixture over the noodles. Cover and bake for 20 minutes. Top with the shredded cheese and remaining noodles. Bake, uncovered, 10 minutes longer or until heated through.

Church Supper Hot Dish Variations

  • Switch the soup: Cream of celery, cream of chicken, cream of potato and cream of onion are all excellent substitutes for cream of mushroom soup.
  • Step up the seasonings: Add dried or fresh chopped herbs such as parsley, oregano or thyme. Minced garlic and a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes would also be tasty additions. To deepen the flavor of the filling, add up to a tablespoon of low-sodium soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce.
  • Make it with another meat: Ground chicken, turkey or pork sausage would all work in this recipe. Hot dish recipes like this are also great for leftover cooked meat, like shredded or cubed chicken, beef or pork. For a vegetarian casserole, you could use your favorite plant-based meat substitute.
