Chinese Noodle Casserole

This one is a favorite of mine (sorry Brian). My visiting teacher made it for me when I had my 2nd baby and I fell in love with it. It's usually a big hit with the kiddos too! Plus it's really easy to make and it's things that I almost always have on hand.

1lb ground beef
1 onion minced (i just used dried onion or frozen chopped and put in however much looks good)
1 can cream of mushroom
1 can cream of chicken
2 cups water
4 Tbs. soy sauce
1 1/4 cups minute rice
1 large can chinese noodles (or just enough to cover the top, the picture above had lots more than usual)

Brown burger and onion. Add soup, water, and soy sauce. Put in 9x13 pan. Add min rice. Bake for 20 min at 375 degrees. Remove from oven and put noodles on top. Return to oven and bake for 15 more min.
Enjoy! I give it 3 1/2 to 4 stars
