Description
Discover how to make a delicious Slow Cooker Cowboy Potato Casserole with this easy recipe. Perfect for a hearty and satisfying meal!
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef (454 g)
- 1/2 cup onions, chopped (120 ml)
- 2 garlic cloves, pressed
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup milk (240 ml)
- 4 cups (960 ml) sliced potatoes (about 4 medium potatoes)
- 2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded and divided (200 g)
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare all necessary items.
- In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the lean ground beef with the onions until the meat is browned and the onions are soft and clear, approximately 6 to 7 minutes. Incorporate the garlic and cook until its aroma is released, about 1 minute. Add salt and pepper for seasoning.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the mushroom soup with the milk, stirring until well blended.
- Line the inside of a slow cooker with a liner. Arrange the potato slices in a single layer at the base, overlapping if necessary, and season with salt and pepper. Layer the cooked beef over the potatoes, followed by the soup mixture, and sprinkle with 1 cup of shredded cheese. Continue layering using the rest of the ingredients.
- Set the slow cooker to High and let it cook until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, which should take 3 to 4 hours.
Notes
- Consider using sharp cheddar cheese for a more flavorful dish.
- Add cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
- Experiment with Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes for varied textures.
