In a frying pan, brown the ground beef, then drain the grease out.
Add the celery, onions, water, soy sauce, rice, chicken and mushroom soup; stir, and bring to a boil.
Be careful with the hot mixture when you transfer it into a buttered casserole dish.

Remove from oven with oven mitts (or have an adult help you).
Cover mixture with the chow mein noodles and return to the oven for 10 more minutes.
Remove from oven to enjoy.

add mushrooms, water chestnuts, bean sprouts or toasted almonds, it is all up to you the cook.
