🛒 WHAT YOU’LL NEED
🥔 1 bag (32 oz) frozen diced hash browns, thawed
🥩 1 pound ground beef
🧅 1 small onion, diced
🥫 1 can (10.5 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup
🧀 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
🧂 Salt and black pepper, optional
👩🍳 HOW TO MAKE IT
1️⃣ Brown the beef
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Brown the ground beef and diced onion in a large skillet over medium heat until the beef is fully cooked. Drain excess grease.
2️⃣ Mix the filling
In a large bowl, combine the cooked beef and onion, thawed hash browns, cream of mushroom soup, and about half of the shredded cheddar cheese.
Season with a little salt and pepper if desired.
3️⃣ Fill the casserole dish
Transfer the mixture to a greased 9×13-inch baking dish and spread it into an even layer.
4️⃣ Add the cheese
Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese generously over the top. 🧀
5️⃣ Bake until bubbly
Cover with foil and bake for 35–40 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 10–15 minutes, until hot and bubbling and the cheese is golden around the edges.
6️⃣ Let it rest
Let the casserole sit for about 5–10 minutes before serving.

💡 A LITTLE TIP
If using frozen hash browns, thaw them first and pat away excess moisture. This helps the casserole bake up creamy and hearty instead of watery.
