3 Make Ahead and Freeze CASSEROLES

Easy Cheeseburger Casserole (makes 3 freezer meals)

Ingredients:

For the topping:

2 pounds of ground beef (again, mine was pre-cooked)

1 onion, diced very finely

Six cups Cheddar Cheese, grated

For the crust:

5 cups of self rising flour

3/4 cup of sour cream

1 egg

1 cup (more or less) of water

 Directions:

• 
  

  In a saute pan, cook together the ground beef over medium high heat until onion is soft. Set aside to cool.

  
  


• 
  

  Make the crust first by combining the flour, egg, sour cream and enough water to bring it together into a thick, but spreadable consistency.

  
  


• 
  

  Spray the pans (I used three round pans) and spread a layer of the dough into each one. 4. Sprinkle the cooled meat mixture over the dough, then top each one with about 2 cups of cheddar. Top with lid.

  
  

Write on lid: Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes, until cheese is lightly browned and bubbly.

Tex Mex Chicken Casserole (makes 4 casseroles)

Ingredients:

4 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded

8 cups of cooked rice

2 can of Rotel tomatoes

2 packs of taco seasoning

2 cans of whole kernel corn, drained

2 cans of black beans (undrained)

1 small can of black olives, drained

6 cups of cheddar cheese, grated

Directions:

• 
  

  Mix together all of the ingredients in a bowl, except the cheese. Divide out into four pans, then top each with the cheddar cheese and top with cardboard topper.

  
  

Write on lid: Remove cardboard piece and bake at 350 until thoroughly heated and cheese is melted (all ingredients are already cooked, so it’s just a matter of heating it well.) *Serve with sour cream and salsa on top and tortilla chips.

Chicken Casserole (makes 3 casseroles)

Ingredients:

4 shredded, cooked chicken breasts

5 cups of cooked rice

2 cans of cream of chicken condensed soup

1 cup of chicken broth

2 bags of frozen peas and carrots (I used mixed, but you could use one bag of each)

1 Tablespoon of salt

1/2 Tablespoon of black pepper

3 cup of French’s onions

3 cups of shredded cheddar cheese

Directions:

• 
  

  In a small bowl, combine the cheese and onions together – set aside (for the topping)

  
  


• 
  

  In a large bowl, combine the rest of the ingredients together, then separate into pans. Top each one with 1/3 of the topping mixture and freeze.

  
  

Write on lid: Bake at 350 until thoroughly warm and cheese is melted (everything is already cooked in the casserole.)
