This ground beef casserole or commonly called Shipwreck Casserole is a comfort food meal that always gets rave reviews. This super easy version of the classic Shipwreck Casserole is made with ground beef, rice, potatoes and lots of veggies, baked together in the most delicious tomato sauce. This dinner is quick to throw together, and it freezes well too. This beef casserole is one of my favorite cozy winter meals!
