Hamburger Potato Casserole

Fast, easy, good and, of course, comes from Grandma!

Ingredients:

• 1 lb hamburger
• 1 can drained green beans
• 1 can condensed tomato soup
• approx 4 cups mashed potatoes
• cheese, bacon bits (optional)

Directions:

Cook and drain grease off hamburger. Put cooked ground beef in bottom of casserole dish. Take can of drained green beans and mix in bowl with can of tomato soup, yes mix soup and green beans right out of can. Don't add water or heat up, just dump both cans and mix. Take that mixture and layer on top of hamburger. Next take mashed potatoes and layer on top of green bean mixture.

Cover and reheat in an oven at 350 degrees F, for approx 30 minutes, or until bubbly. I would always make this after a night where we had mashed potatoes, I would use the left overs. Instant also works just fine. You can add cheese or bacon bits to top of mashed potatoes. Use your imagination. This tastes great and will feed at least 5, and has all your food groups, except the desert one.

This sounds similar to a veggie casserole I make! It uses soy ground, mixed veggies and a few added spices: cumin, oregano, sage. Thanks for sharing! Condensed tomato soup is good for so many recipes isn't it? (04/09/2009)
