Classic poor folk food. You take some kind of starch (rice or potatoes are common choices), two cans of veggies, optionally a finely chopped or ground meat and shredded cheese if you've got it and a can of some kind of soup or similar as a binder and to help keep it from drying out. Mix everything thoroughly but the cheese, top with the cheese, bake. It's filling, cheap, makes enough that you probably have leftovers and will last a few days if it needs to. Most combinations under this formula are also pretty tasty. The whole point is to stretch a little meat and veg a lot.
It's "make a filling meal off whatever you got last time canned stuff was on a sale and still have in the pantry" food, aka food for poor folk.
I 100% understand this, because I grew up eating this kind of thing and refuse to do it as an adult.
