Description
A hearty and comforting casserole combining ground beef, potatoes, and cheese, perfect for busy weeknights.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef (lean or regular)
- 4–5 medium russet or Yukon gold potatoes, thinly sliced (about 1/8 inch thick)
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (sharp or mild), divided
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley or chopped chives for garnish
Instructions
- Cook the ground beef and chopped onion in a skillet over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes, until the beef is browned. Drain any excess fat.
- Thinly slice the potatoes.
- In a crockpot, layer half of the potato slices, then half of the cooked beef and onion mixture, followed by a portion of the shredded cheese. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
- Whisk together the cream of mushroom soup, milk, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Pour over the layers in the crockpot.
- Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, or until potatoes are tender and cheese is melted.
- Sprinkle remaining shredded cheese on top about 15 minutes before serving and cover until melted. Garnish with herbs before serving.
Notes
Ensure potatoes are sliced thinly for even cooking. Customize cheese to your preference and try adding herbs for enhanced flavor.
