Description

A hearty and flexible casserole made with ground beef, potatoes, and cheese, perfect for busy weeks.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 4 to 5 medium potatoes, thinly sliced
  • 1 small onion, chopped (optional)
  • 1 to 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup or cream of chicken soup
  • ½ cup milk
  • 2 to 3 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Paprika (optional)
  • Cooking spray or butter for the baking dish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F. Spray a 9×13 baking dish with cooking spray or rub it with butter. Wash and thinly slice your potatoes.
  2. Brown the ground beef with chopped onion in a skillet until no longer pink. Drain excess grease and season with garlic, salt, pepper, and paprika.
  3. Mix together the cream soup and milk in a bowl until well combined.
  4. Layer sliced potatoes in the baking dish, sprinkling salt and pepper over them. Add half of the cooked beef, spoon some soup mixture on top, and sprinkle with cheese. Repeat the layers.
  5. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 50 to 60 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes until the top is golden and bubbly. Let sit for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

Slice potatoes thin for even cooking. Season each layer for best flavor.
