Rice and Sour Cream Casserole

1 1/2 C cooked white rice
3 small zucchini, sliced
4 oz can chopped green chilies
12 oz grated jack cheese
2 lg tomatoes, thinly sliced
2 C sour cream
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp garlic salt
1/4 C chopped green pepper
1/4 C chopped green onion
2 Tbl chopped fresh parsley

Layer into large buttered 9 x 13 casserole: cooked rice, chopped chilies, 1/2 of the cheese, zucchini, and tomato slices.
Combine the sour cream, oregano, garlic salt, green pepper, and green onion.  Spoon this mixture over the tomatoes and sprinkle on the rest of the cheese.
Bake at 350 for 45 min.  Sprinkle with fresh parsley. Works as either a vegetarian main dish or a side dish.              - Tricia

Casserole Steak

1 lb. of lean round steak (cut all the fat off)
Brown real good on both sides in a little crisco.  Salt and Pepper it.
Put in a heavy casserole dish and slice 1 small onion over it.  Then add hot water and about 4 or 5 whole carrots and 3 or 4 potatoes and cover with hot water. Add more salt maybe two good shakes.  Let simmer for 3 hrs. in oven.  Take out and thicken gravy.
I like it best if I put it over mashed potatoes instead of adding the potatoes when I add the carrots.

350 oven

If you want to make more just double everything.

Be sure you cut meat into the sizes of the number of people you have before you cook it.
