Subj : Nat Canned Food Month - 1 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Thu Feb 16 2023 04:21:00 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Talerine Beef Casserole Categories: Beef, Casserole, Pasta Yield: 8 Servings 12 oz Bag egg noodles 1 md White onion; peeled, chopped 1 Bell pepper; seeded, chopped - fine 3 cl Garlic; minced Oil for sauteing 1 1/2 lb Ground beef chuck Salt 4 oz Mushrooms; sliced 28 oz Can tomatoes 1 1/2 c Canned corn; or frozen 15 oz Can black olives; drained, - chopped 1 lb Cheddar cheese; grated Set the oven @ 350ºF/175ºC and bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the egg noodles. Heat 2 Tb oil on medium high heat in a large, heavy bottomed pot. Add the onions and bell pepper and saute until softened. Add garlic and cook for a minute more. Add the tomatoes, breaking them up with your fingers or a knife, if you are using whole canned tomatoes. Bring to a simmer and let cook for 10 minutes. Lower the heat to warm. In a separate skillet, heat to medium-high. Add a couple tablespoons oil to the pan and brown the meat, working in batches. Break up about half of the ground beef into the pan. Do not stir, but let sit and cook for a minute or two until brown. Sprinkle a little salt over the meat while cooking. Once brown on one side, stir the meat a little to get the other sides browned. Once the meat is thoroughly browned, use a slotted spoon to remove the meat from the pan and put it in with the tomatoes, onions, and peppers. Brown the second batch of ground beef the same way. Using the same pan that you had used for browning the beef, saute the mushrooms in the remaining oil and beef drippings. Once browned, add the mushrooms to the beef and tomato mixture. While the mushrooms are cooking, add the egg noodle pasta to the boiling water. Cook as directed, about 4-5 minutes. Drain when cooked, but still a little firm (al dente). Add egg noodles, corn, chopped olives, and about 2/3 of the cheese to the large pot of beef and tomato mixture. Gently mix in. Transfer mixture to a large casserole dish, or to two casserole dishes if you don't have one that is large enough. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top of casserole. Place in the oven. Cook for 30 minutes (can go as long as an hour). Serves 8. http://www.elise.com/recipes Meal Master Format by Dave Drum - 15 October 2008 Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM ....
