Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 can (10.5 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 cups thinly sliced potatoes (about 2 medium)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  4. Layer half of the sliced potatoes in the bottom of a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
  5. Spread the ground beef mixture evenly over the potatoes.
  6. Top with the remaining sliced potatoes.
  7. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil.
  8. Bake for 1 hour, or until the potatoes are tender.
  9. Remove the foil and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
  10. Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  11. Let stand for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • You can make this casserole ahead of time and refrigerate it. Add a few extra minutes to the baking time if baking from cold.
  • This casserole also freezes well. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before baking.
  • For a different flavor, you can add a can of drained diced tomatoes to the beef mixture.
  • If you don’t have cream of mushroom soup, cream of celery or cream of chicken soup can be substituted.
