Amish Shipwreck Casserole Recipe II: The Fan Favorite With a Cheesy Twist by 30Seconds Food

Amish recipes are always popular, but none of them have been quite as well received as our Amish shipwreck casserole recipe. The ground beef casserole went viral and continues to be a fan favorite. When reading the comments and getting emails with questions and suggestions about the casserole recipe, we noticed a trend: you wanted cheese. Doesn't cheese make everything better?

This cheesy Amish shipwreck casserole has the addition of shredded cheddar cheese. It is made the same way as the original casserole recipe. Start by putting sliced onions onto the bottom of a baking dish. Top with thinly sliced potatoes, uncooked (yes, raw) ground beef, uncooked white rice, chopped celery, chopped carrots and tomato soup. Cover and bake for 1 1/2 hours, then uncover, top with shredded cheddar cheese, cover it back up and continue to bake for 30 more minutes. Uncover for five minutes to brown the cheese, then carefully uncover and serve to your family (they've waited long enough!).

You could use yellow cheddar cheese or white cheddar cheese for this casserole. If you're not a fan of cheddar, try Gruyere, Monterey Jack or mozzarella cheese. Serve this shipwreck casserole with a salad topped with creamy Amish lettuce dressing and hot bread.
