Step by Step Method
Step 1
Add 2 cups of water, and butter to a sauce pan. Bring to a boil. Add wild rice, reduce heat and cover. Simmer for 45-60 minutes or until water is absorbed. You may need to add more boiling water if the rice doesn't break open by the time the water is absorbed. Unfortunately, wild rice cooks differently each time.
Step 2
Meanwhile, brown ground beef with celery and onion. Drain grease.
Step 3
Mix all ingredients together and place into a greased casserole dish.
Step 4
Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes, until bubbly.
Step 5
You can top with cheese or just enjoy as is. Enjoy!
