This is an easy casserole that everyone will like. With the kid friendly ingredients of ground beef and potatoes, this is sure to be popular, especially with picky eaters. For added flavor, shredded cheddar cheese could be included in this recipe. When making this, I would drain the ground beef after browning it.

Does one use only half the potatoes in step one? In step 5,it it potatoes,or should it say meat?

That should say ground beef. The recipe has been updated. Thank you for pointing that out.
