Description
A simple, filling, and comforting one-dish meal combining potatoes, ground beef, cream, and cheese, baked until bubbly.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
- 4 medium potatoes, washed and thinly sliced
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup (about 10.5 oz)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef, and brown, breaking it into small pieces. Season with salt and pepper.
- Drain excess fat from the beef.
- In a large bowl, stir together the sliced potatoes, cream of mushroom soup, and the cooked beef until evenly coated.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top.
- Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for another 10–15 minutes, until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden.
- Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
For a lighter version, use reduced-fat soup and lean ground beef. Adjust bake time for thicker potato slices.
