Ground Beef With Potatoes and Green Beans
Hamburger Potato Casserole combines potatoes with ground beef and green beans in a velvety cheese sauce. It is pure comfort food.
My Mom made this casserole fairly often when I was a kid. To be honest, it wasn't my most favorite thing to eat. However when looking through her recipes, I knew that my kids would enjoy it. The Hamburger Potato Casserole checks the boxes I need to feed two busy (and frankly picky) teenagers. It's filling, relatively basic, quick to make and includes a vegetable that both kids agree on. I appreciate this throw-back dinner more now that I am a Mom than I did as a kid. Isn't that the way with lots of things? You don't realize why your Mom does things, or makes things, or says things (you likely rolled your eyes at much of it) – until you become a Mom yourself.

How to make Hamburger Potato Casserole
This casserole is so simple to make. Wash and thinly slice the potatoes. Cover them with water and microwave them for about 10 minutes, then drain them. Meanwhile, brown the ground beef in a skillet and drain the fat. In a large bowl, mix together the green beans (drain only one of the cans), Worcestershire sauce, black pepper and cream of mushroom soup. Once that is combined, stir in the sliced potatoes and ground beef.
Pour the mixture into a casserole dish. Cover it with foil and bake at 350 degrees for one hour. Uncover the dish and top it with cubed Velveeta cheese. Increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees and bake for an additional 15 minutes, until the cheese is bubbling and starting to brown. The potatoes should be completely tender. Serve with a green salad and apple slices.
