A comforting, layered crockpot casserole made with ground beef, sliced potatoes, onions, creamy soup, and melted cheese. Slow-cooked to tender perfection for a hearty family dinner.
1 lb lean ground beef
4 medium russet potatoes, thinly sliced
1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup milk
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp paprika (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Butter or nonstick spray for greasing
In a skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked. Drain excess grease.
Thinly slice the potatoes and onions.
In a bowl, mix cream of mushroom soup with milk until smooth.
Grease the crockpot insert with butter or cooking spray.
Layer a third of the potatoes, onions, and beef. Sprinkle with seasoning, pour over some soup mixture, and top with cheese.
Repeat the layers two more times, finishing with cheese.
Cover and cook on LOW for 6–7 hours or HIGH for 3.5–4 hours, until potatoes are tender.
Let rest for 10–15 minutes before serving.
