Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 cup onion, diced
- 1 tbsp garlic, minced
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 5 medium potatoes, thinly sliced
- 1 can condensed cream of mushroom soup
- 1 can condensed cream of chicken soup
- 1 can evaporated milk
- ½ cup milk
- 2 cups shredded cheese
- Cooking spray
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a 9×13 inch baking pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- In a large skillet, cook the ground beef, diced onions, and minced garlic over medium heat until the beef is no longer pink. Drain the excess fat and season the mixture with salt and black pepper.
- Arrange a layer of thinly sliced potatoes over the bottom of the prepared pan. Spread half of the cooked beef mixture evenly over the potatoes.
- In a bowl, whisk together the condensed cream of mushroom soup, condensed cream of chicken soup, evaporated milk, and milk until smooth. Pour half of this soup mixture over the beef layer. Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese on top.
- Repeat the layering process with the remaining potatoes, beef, soup mixture, and shredded cheese, creating a second layer on top.
- Tent a piece of aluminum foil loosely over the pan to prevent the foil from sticking to the cheese. Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour.
- Remove the foil and continue baking the casserole for an additional 30 minutes, allowing the cheese to brown and the potatoes to become tender.
- Remove the casserole from the oven and let it stand for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
