      Title: Cat Litter Casserole
 Categories: Casseroles, Beef, Pork, Poultry
      Yield: 9 Servings
 
      1 c  Bisquick
      1 c  Shredded Cheddar
      1 lb Ground beef, turkey or pork
           Sausage

MMMMM---------------------------LITTER--------------------------------
      2 c  Long grain rice
  3 3/4 c  Water
      2 ts Salt
      2 tb Butter

MMMMM---------------------------TOOLS--------------------------------
        lg Mixing bowl
           Rectangular baking pan
           Deep saucepan with lid
           Fork
           Paper towels
        lg Spoon
           Stainless steel pooper
           - scooper
 
  To make dumps: Set oven @ 350ºF/175ºC. Using clean
  hans, mix together the dump ingredients in a large bowl.
  Mold pieces of this mixture in various size/shape dumps.
  
  Place so they don't touch each other in an un-greased
  baking pan. Use two if they don't all fit. Bake the
  dumps for about 20 minutes or until they are all brown,
  firm and slightly crusty.
  
  While the meat cooks, put all four litter ingredients
  into a large saucepan. Then, heat on high until the
  water comes to a boil. Stir, turn heat to low and cover
  the pan. Simmer without lifting the cover for 14 minutes.
  
  Remove the saucepan from the stove and carefully (to
  avoid having your face melted away by the steam), lift
  off the cover. Break apart, or "fluff" the rice with a
  fork and set pan aside.
  
  When dumps are done, carefully transfer them onto paper
  towels to drain.
  
  Spoon the rice and dumps into the now empty baking pan,
  leaving some dumps partially uncovered, the way Kitty
  does when he/she is in a hurry.
  
  Serves 8-10 litter box lovers.
  
  Use pooper scooper to serve.
