I modified by using venison burger and Minute multi-grain medley. I used beef broth, cut it by half a cup, added the Minute rice, mixed in the fat free soup, and added peas rather than beans. Done is 30 minutes and tastes terrific! Nearly fat free with the venison burger. Yummy!

I added 2 elephant garlic cloves minced to both rice and hamburger while cooking. Then I added a little soy sauce and WOW

This "Creamy Hamburger & Rice Casserole" is full of flavor. I always add my own spin to recipes. My changes were 3 cans of Campbell's French Onion Soup in place of the hot water. Jasmine Rice instead of white rice. Frozen roasted sweet corn instead of green beans. Lastly I added 1-TBS of ORGANIC Worcestershire Sauce. I cooked this for the full 1-1/2 hours, in a "covered" Le Creuset Dutch Oven instead of a Lasagna Pan. The favor was stunning!

This was OK but a little bland and a little dry. I added some beef broth to it. The rice sucked up all the juice. But it was good for a winter evening, and didn't take a lot of time to put together.
