This Easy Hamburger Potato Casserole is a comforting dish that combines layers of seasoned ground beef, thinly sliced potatoes, cheddar cheese, and a creamy mushroom sauce. It’s an all-in-one dinner that’s quick to prepare and perfect for satisfying family meals.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 45 medium potatoes, thinly sliced
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup (10.5 oz)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: garlic powder or other seasonings

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven: Set oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Cook Beef: In a skillet, brown the ground beef with onions, seasoning with salt, pepper, and any optional seasonings. Cook until beef is fully browned and onions are softened.
  • Layer Potatoes: Grease a casserole dish and arrange the sliced potatoes evenly on the bottom.
  • Add Beef Layer: Spread the cooked beef and onion mixture over the potatoes.
  • Prepare the Sauce: In a bowl, mix the cream of mushroom soup with milk until smooth, then pour this mixture over the beef and potato layers.
  • Top with Cheese: Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the casserole.
  • Bake: Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and potatoes are fork-tender.

Notes

  • Swap ground beef with ground turkey or chicken for a lighter option.
  • Add vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms for extra flavor.
  • Use a homemade cream sauce if avoiding canned soup.
