Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 cup onion, diced
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 5 medium potatoes, thinly sliced
- 1 can (10.7 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup
- 1 can (10.7 oz) condensed cream of chicken soup
- 1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk
- ½ cup milk
- 2 cups shredded cheese
- Cooking spray
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 375°F and spray a 9×13 inch pan with cooking spray.
2. Cook beef, onion, and garlic in a skillet until no longer pink. Drain well and season with salt and pepper.
3. Layer half of the potatoes in the bottom of the prepared pan. Top with half of the beef mixture.
4. Whisk together cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, evaporated milk, and milk until smooth. Pour half over beef and potatoes. Sprinkle with half of the cheese.
5. Repeat layers with remaining potatoes, beef, soup mixture, and cheese.
6. Cover pan with foil, tenting it so it does not touch the cheese.
7. Bake covered for 1 hour. Remove foil and bake 30 more minutes until golden and bubbly.
8. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
Slice potatoes thinly and evenly for best cooking results.
Let casserole rest before serving so layers hold together.
Use pre-chopped onions and garlic to save time.
Broil for 2–3 minutes at the end for a golden top.
