Ground Beef Rice and Potatoe Casserole
Ground Beef Potato Casserole made with lean ground beef, diced potatoes, cream of mushroom soup and shredded Cheddar cheese baked in a creamy delicious casserole.
I've been so busy lately that getting dinner on the table has been a bit of a challenge. It goes it spurts doesn't it? One minute you have time to plan and think; the next you're wondering what the heck you're going to make to feed your family!
Well this Ground Beef Potato Casserole was delicious, quick and SUPER easy to make; a.k.a the perfect weeknight meal!
My recipes usually don't contain prepared foods like soups, frozen or prepackaged ingredients. However, even I need a break every now and then and will settle for easy and convenient over fresh when I'm short on time.
Frozen diced potatoes are one of those items I keep as a staple because you can add them to so many recipes. Some of our favorites are Portuguese Chorizo and Potatoes, Hashbrown Casserole {Cracker Barrel Copycat Recipe}, and Corned Beef Hash.
Because our girls like their food on the spicy side, they opted to add some hot sauce to give this dish a little more kick!
