Amazing recipe! I took other's suggestions and added onions to the beef. I also added beef broth to give it more flavor. Everyone loved it and will be making this again!

This recipe was good, but I found it a little bland. I substituted jasmine rice for the instant rice, marjoram for the thyme and mushroom soup for the celery soup. I added onions while browning the beef. It tasted alright, the family loved it, but next time I will add some extra seasoning to give it a bit more flavour.

My family absolutely loved this recipe...I used frozen mixed veggies unstead of frozen pea's! But it was still a WINNER!

Very easy to make! Added a packed of taco seasoning to give it an extra kick and it tasted really good! I also made it as a one pot dish and added the rice to the mixture instead of spooning it into a baking dish. Still turned out great!
