Beef Mushroom Rice Bake (Printable Version)

# What You'll Need:

→ Main

01 - Black pepper, as you like
02 - Salt, adjust to your taste
03 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
04 - 120 g sour cream
05 - 480 ml beef broth
06 - 295 g canned cream of mushroom soup
07 - 1 cup (180 g) uncooked white rice
08 - 1 small onion, diced
09 - 1 cup (100 g) mushrooms, chopped up
10 - 450 g ground beef

→ Topping

11 - 100 g cheddar cheese, shredded (skip if you want)

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Let the dish cool off a bit before scooping onto plates and digging in.
02 - If using cheese, toss it on top after baking and pop the dish back in for about 5 minutes so it can melt all gooey and nice.
03 - Cover with foil and bake at 175°C until the rice soaks up everything and gets soft—around 50 to 60 minutes.
04 - Once it’s all mixed, get the filling into your greased baking dish and level it out with a spatula.
05 - Grab a big bowl and stir together the cooked meat and veggies, dry rice, canned soup, broth, sour cream, garlic powder, plus salt and pepper until blended.
06 - Toss beef, mushrooms, and onion into a skillet. Cook on medium till the beef’s nicely browned. Pour off any grease you see.
07 - Set your oven to 175°C and spray some nonstick on a 22x33 cm pan.

# Additional Tips:

01 - Grate your cheese fresh for that perfect melt. Want deeper flavor? Sear those mushrooms till they get golden before mixing them in.
