Hamburger Chinese Rice

The next two posts are great meals for putting in a pumpkin for Halloween. Gut the pumpkin and bake it for an hour to an hour and a half first, just to get it softer before you add the rest of the ingredients. I would cover it with foil and leave the top off. Make sure your pumpkin is small enough to fit in the oven and be sure to use a pan underneath. The pumpkins for pies are a little too small.

1 1/2 C Rice (I use minute rice)
1 or 2 lbs hamburger
1 onion, chopped
1 green pepper*
3 stalks celery, chopped*
1 can of cream of mushroom soup
1 can of cream of chicken soup
1 can of water
1 T soy sauce
Chinese noodles (don't use when baking in a pumpkin.)

Cook hamburger, onion, celery and green pepper. Combine all ingredients and pour in a 9" x 13" pan. Cook for 45 minutes, covered, at 350 degrees. Then uncover and put Chinese noodles on top. Cook for 15 minutes more.

*Leave out the green pepper and celery to make it more kid-friendly. I used to leave it out when you were young because none of you would eat it. When I started leaving it out, you ate it!
