Beef and Spinach Casserole

This recipe originally came from Grandma Bonnie, who gave it to Jay, who made it when he and I were dating. It was then that I fell in love with the dish. (And Jay too of course. Who doesn't love a man that can cook?)



*6-8 servings

2 lbs ground beef

1 box chopped spinach (thawed and drained)

1 can cream or celery soup diluted with 1 can of water

1 pt. sour cream

1 can cream of mushroom soup

2 C raw minute rice

1 tsp garlic powder

2 tsp onion flakes

1 C grated jack/chedder cheese

Brown meat with garlic powder and onion flakes. Mix thawed spinach and other ingredients in a bowl. Pour into buttered 9 x 13 casserole pan. Cover with cheese. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes.
