This cheesy beef and wild rice casserole hits the spot every time. I especially love making it on rainy days when I’m feeling blech and want something warm and comforting in my belly.

Like cheeeeeese!

Cheesy Beef and Wild Rice Casserole

There’s lots of cheese in this dish, but there are also lots of vegetables and rice. It’s all about balance, right?

To switch things up, I’ve also made it with ground white meat turkey and that tastes equally delicious. You could also try different veggie combinations or a single veggie if that’s your preference.

The fun in making casseroles is playing around with the ingredients. I think that’s why I like casseroles so much… well, that and the fact they are seriously good comfort food.

But let’s be honest… the cheese is the best part. Perhaps that’s the most comforting part of all.
