I tried this at a church potluck years ago and begged for the recipe. The crunchy cornflake topping pairs well with the creamy rice casserole. - Beth Logan, Lakefield, Ontario.
Can you freeze Crunchy Rice Casserole?
Wrap unbaked casserole tightly in plastic wrap, followed by foil, then freeze for up to 3 months. To use, sprinkle with buttered cornflake crumbs. Heat in the oven until completely heated through.

- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1/2 cup chopped green pepper

- 1-1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 cups cornflakes, coarsely crushed
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
Directions
- In a skillet, cook beef, onion and green pepper over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the ketchup, mustard and salt; mix well. Transfer to a greased 2-qt. baking dish. Top with rice.
