Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 lbs ground beef
  • 1 yellow onion, finely diced
  • 4 lbs russet potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/4-inch thin
  • 2 cups cheddar cheese, grated
  • 10.75 oz can condensed Cheddar soup
  • 12 oz can evaporated milk
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray. Set aside.
  • Add ground beef and onion to a large skillet over medium-high heat, season with salt and pepper, and cook until no longer pink. Drain fat and set aside.
  • Arrange a single layer of potatoes in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Season with salt and pepper. Top with 1/4 of the beef mixture and 1/4 of the cheddar cheese. Repeat layers three more times.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together condensed cheddar soup, evaporated milk, regular milk, and garlic powder until smooth. Pour this mixture evenly over the casserole.
  • Cover the baking dish tightly with foil and bake for 60 minutes.
  • Uncover and bake an additional 15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly. Enjoy!

Notes

You can substitute ground turkey or add a little cayenne for heat. Let rest 5–10 minutes before serving for easier slicing.
