Spinach Beef Bake Recipes

CHEESY SPINACH AND BEEF CASSEROLE (SPINACH FANDANGO)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F.
• In a large skillet or dutch oven, combine the 1lb ground beef, 1 diced onion, 8oz fresh sliced mushrooms, 1 clove of minced garlic, and 1 tsp oregano and cook over medium heat until meat is browned and the vegetables are softened and fragrant.
• While the beef mixture is browning, microwave the frozen spinach to defrost it. I microwaved it in a microwave safe bowl for 4 minutes. Then, remove from the microwave and over the sink, press the spinach up against the sides of the bowl to extract excess liquid and drain off the liquid. You can also use cheesecloth or a sieve if you prefer.
• Once the spinach is fully strained, add it to the browned beef mixture and toss to combine.
• Next, combine the rice, 1 tsp oregano, 1 cup sour cream, 1 Tbs butter and 3/4 cup of milk in a small bowl and stir until combined and creamy. If the rice isn't warm and the butter doesn't melt, you can microwave it for 45 seconds.
• Add the creamy rice mix to the beef and spinach mixture and then pour it all into a medium to large sized rectangular casserole dish and spread evenly to all sides.
• Sprinkle 8 oz shredded Monterrey Jack Cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.
• Bake for 35 - 40 minutes or until the casserole is bubbling and the cheese on top is melty and slightly browned.
• Allow to rest for 5 minutes after removing from the oven before slicing.

• Lightly fry until the onions are soft and translucent (not brown as this will make them taste bitter)

• Make the Cheese Sauce. Melt butter in pan under gentle heat
• Add Flour and beat until smooth paste and take pan off the heat.
• Slowly add the milk and broth (combine them in to one jug for ease), a little at a time and combine until smooth, then add a little more of the milk / broth, combine. Continue until all the milk / broth is used.

• *** you should be able to make 3 layers altogether.
• Place in the oven for 45 minutes. I would advise to place the bake on a baking tray to catch any drips. When done, remove and leave to set for 30 minutes. If you try and cut the bake when it is piping hot it is too slushy. Allow to firm up a little then you can make nice portions and get the bake from the pan using a fish slice.
