Chow Mein Bake

by Laura

I recently stumbled across a recipe that took me back to my childhood. I recall eating a simple chow mein bake as a child. It involved rice, hamburger, cream of mushroom soup and chow mein noodles. It was a dish I remember fondly and decided to make my own version.

I recently became a Canbassador for Cans Get You Cooking . So, I will be sharing a recipe each month from now until the end of the year using canned items.  I love to keep a well stocked “Cantry”. I keep items in it such as canned soups, tomatoes, beans, fruit, and vegetables. It makes it easy to get dinner on the table. I must admit my “cantry” saved me when my hubby was out of a job. I highly suggest you keep one.

So today’s recipe for chow mein bake includes canned cream of mushroom soup and cream of chicken soup which are staples in my book for any “cantry”. It also includes a can of chow mein noodles. Be sure to check out Cans Get You Cooking’s Pinterest, Facebook, and You Tube pages for more info and ways to use canned items. You can also check out all my cantry recipes too.

I realize this is a really late comment, but… for those of you asking about minute or regular rice, if a recipe doesn’t specifically state minute or parboiled or precooked, it means regular good old fashioned rice. Always.

It’s just uncooked long grain rice that you use.

My Mom made something similar to this when we were children. I liked it! I will have to try your version. I agree, a well stocked pantry is the only way to live.
But as empty nesters it is tricky keeping everything rotated. When I was cooking for 8 it was no problem! Life changes, and that is not a bad thing.
