“I Don’t Care” Casserole

"I Don't Care" Casserole

Have you ever been willing to cook for your family and asked what would you like? Normally if the response is "I don't care" then I cook something for myself and let the rest fend for themselves. This recipe seems like a good alternative and sounds tasty as well. Original recipe listed Velvetta cheese, which is basically plastic, I changed this up to use real cheese. On my to cook list. Link to the shortcut is listed in the Recipe Notes section.

Ingredients
  

  • 4-6 cups cooked rice
  • 750 grams ham, cubed (1 1/2 lbs)
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, smashed and minced
  • 1 can whole peeled tomatoes, chopped, drained and juice retained
  • 2 cups fresh broccoli, chopped into bite size pieces, plus stem
  • 250 grams Cheddar cheese, cubed
  • 1 can condensed Cheddar cheese soup, OR make from a shortcut
  • 1 green Bird's Eye Chili, seeded and minced

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 180 C (350 F), get out a baking dish (I will verify the size when I make this).
  • In a large mixing bowl, add all the ingredients, pour into your baking dish.
  • Bake for 30 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the top is starting to brown.
  • Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes, serve to your ungrateful family 😉
  • Maybe next time when you ask, they will be more specific. Now if you ask what would you like for dinner and the family says "Kobe beef, Maine lobsters, and King crab" then fix this casserole, they will learn 😉

Notes

I will price this when I get ham again, right now I will say high cost and will calculate this after I gather the supplies.
Shortcut: Condensed Cheese Soup.
Variants: 1. Substitute ham for cooked and cubed chicken or turkey. 2. Omit the meat and just make a vegetable casserole.
