Broccoli Rice Ground Beef Casserole


I make this casserole frequently for supper because it is cheap, fast, filling and great for kids. it's even good for very young kids who are just beginning to eat table foods. when i was a kid, we would have this as a side dish for holiday dinners, but i make it as a simple supper with crackers or dinner rolls and salad. you can substitute ingredients to fit what you have on hand.

Steps

Spray a 9x13 casserole dish with cooking spray.
