Method
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a 9x13 inch pan with cooking spray.
- In a large skillet, cook the ground beef, diced onions, and minced garlic until the beef is no longer pink. Drain well and season with salt and black pepper.
Layering
- Place a layer of thinly sliced potatoes over the bottom of the prepared pan.
- Add half of the cooked beef mixture on top of the potatoes.
- In a separate bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup and cream of chicken soup. Whisk in the evaporated milk and the regular milk.
- Pour half of the soup mixture over the beef layer and sprinkle with half of the shredded cheese.
- Repeat the layers with the remaining ingredients: potatoes, beef, soup mixture, and cheese.
- Cover the pan with a piece of tinfoil, ensuring it is tented to avoid touching the cheese.
Baking
- Bake in the oven for 1 hour.
- Remove the tinfoil and continue baking for an additional 30 minutes.
- Once done, take the casserole out of the oven and let it stand for 10 minutes on a wire rack before slicing.
Notes
This casserole pairs well with a fresh green salad or steamed vegetables. For extra flavor, diced vegetables like carrots or bell peppers can be added. Variations include using ground turkey, chicken, or creating a vegetarian version with beans or lentils.
