Cowboy Casserole
A hearty and comforting dish combining ground beef, potatoes, beans, and cheese, all baked to golden perfection. This simple casserole is perfect for busy weeknights or as a crowd-pleaser for potlucks and family gatherings.
INGREDIENTS:
2 pounds ground beef
3 cups small-diced peeled russet potatoes
1 medium onion small diced
4 garlic cloves minced
1 can 15.5 oz red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 can 14 oz diced tomatoes with green chilies
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Brown the beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked, breaking it up as it cooks (about 8 minutes). Drain excess fat and set aside.
Prepare the base: In a greased 9×13-inch casserole dish, layer the diced russet potatoes evenly across the bottom. Season with salt and pepper.
Add onions and garlic: Distribute the diced onion and minced garlic over the potatoes.
Layer the beef and beans: Spread the browned ground beef evenly over the potato and onion layer. Then, add the drained kidney beans.
Add tomatoes: Pour the diced tomatoes with green chilies over the beef and beans layer.
Bake the casserole: Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
Add cheese: Remove the foil, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top, and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve: Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm!
