Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 small onion diced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 3 medium russet potatoes thinly sliced
- 1 can 10.5 oz cream of mushroom soup
- ½ cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika optional
- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning optional
Instructions
Step No.1: Cook the Ground Beef
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon. Drain excess grease, then add diced onion, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
Step No.2: Prepare the Sauce
- In a small bowl, mix the cream of mushroom soup with milk until smooth.
Step No.3: Assemble the Casserole
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish. Layer half of the sliced potatoes on the bottom, followed by half of the cooked beef mixture. Pour half of the soup mixture over the beef. Repeat the layers.
Step No.4: Bake the Casserole
- Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove foil, sprinkle cheese on top, and bake for another 10-15 minutes until the potatoes are tender and the cheese is melted.
Step No.5: Serve
- Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm!
Notes
- Ground Beef: Lean ground beef works best to avoid excess grease.
- Potatoes: Slicing them thinly ensures they cook evenly.
- Soup Substitute: Cream of chicken or cheddar soup can be used instead of cream of mushroom.
- Cheese: Use a mix of cheeses for extra flavor.
- Spicy Hobo Casserole: Add diced jalapeños or red pepper flakes for heat.
- Bacon Lover’s Hobo Casserole: Stir in cooked, crumbled bacon for extra smokiness.
- Veggie-Packed Hobo Casserole: Add bell peppers, mushrooms, or peas between layers.
- Garlic Parmesan Hobo Casserole: Mix in ¼ cup grated Parmesan with the cheese topping.
- Southwestern Hobo Casserole: Swap Italian seasoning for taco seasoning and use pepper jack cheese.
