This dish is from the Taste of Home Freezer Meals mini-magazine I mentioned in last Friday's post. It was submitted by a reader named Dorothy Wiedeman. I haven't tried it yet, but it's chock-full of ingredients my husband and I both like, so it's on my menu for the upcoming week. I'll post a photo soon.
1 can (15.25 ounces) whole kernel corn, drained
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
1 cup chopped onion
2 cups sliced fresh carrots
1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef (90 percent lean)
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup shredded processed cheese (like Velveeta)
(The magazine from which I got this recipe is designed for cooks to make ahead meals, freeze them, then cook later. To do this, cover before baking and freeze casserole for up to three months. To use, thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Bake as directed.)
