Ground Beef Chow Mein Recipe
This nostalgic hamburger chow mein casserole has stood the test of time for a reason. It's not authentic Chinese food, but it's easy, affordable, and delicious!
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 cup celery, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 ½ Tablespoons soy sauce
- 10.5 ounce can cream of mushroom soup (or cream of chicken soup)
- ½ cup dry long grain rice
- 1 cup hot water (or beef broth)
- 2 cups coleslaw mix
- 1 cup crunchy chow mein noodles
Instructions
- Spray a 9x13" baking dish with cooking spray. Preheat your oven to 350°.

- Add the celery, garlic, pepper, soy sauce, soup, dry rice, and water. Stir until combined.
- Spread the beef mixture into the prepared pan. Cover the pan with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes.
