Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 3-4 large potatoes, thinly sliced
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Garlic powder, to taste
  • Butter, for greasing the baking dish

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish with butter.
  2. Brown the Beef: In a skillet, cook the ground beef and onion over medium heat until the beef is browned and the onion is tender. Drain any excess fat.
  3. Layer Ingredients: In the greased baking dish, start by layering half of the sliced potatoes. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Then, add half of the cooked beef and onion mixture. Top with a layer of shredded cheese.
  4. Repeat Layers: Repeat the layers – remaining potatoes, beef mixture, and another layer of cheese.
  5. Mix Soup and Milk: In a bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup and milk. Pour this mixture evenly over the casserole.
  6. Bake: Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour.
  7. Uncover and Bake: After 1 hour, remove the foil and continue baking for another 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown.
  8. Rest and Serve: Let the casserole sit for a few minutes before serving to allow it to set.
