Today for H, I pulled out another of my mother's casseroles. This one has ham, rice, cheese ... whats not to love. Okay, I admit it I love cheese.
Ham and Rice Casserole
Ingredients:
½ c uncooked reg. Rice
1 lg. Onion, chopped
1 lg. Green pepper, chopped
3 Tbs melted margarine
1 (10 ¾ oz) can Tomato Soup
1 c water
1 (6oz) roll sharp Pasteurized cheese food, cubed
½ lb ham, chopped coarsely
½ tsp black pepper
½ tsp salt
Directions:
Cook rice according to package directions. Set aside.
Saute onion and green pepper in margarine until tender.
Combine remaining ingredients with rice and sautéed vegetables. Spoon mixture into greased 3 quart casserole dish. Bake in pre-heated 350 degree oven for 20 to 30 minutes.
If you have a rice cooker like this one (Zojirushi Nonstick Electric Rice Cooker), you can easily make the rice ahead of time for this recipe.
