Slow-Cooked Beefy Potato Casserole
Ingredients:
1 pound of succulent ground beef
1 onion, finely diced
4 wholesome potatoes, diced
1 can condensed cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup fresh milk
Seasonings: 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded to perfection
2 tablespoons golden bread crumbs
Steps to Comfort:
1. On medium flame, brown the ground beef and onions in a skillet. Ensure all excess moisture is drained.
2. Kickstart your slow cooker magic by layering the diced potatoes, followed by the browned beef-onion mix.
3. In a mixing bowl, blend the mushroom soup, milk, salt, and pepper into a creamy potion. Lavishly pour this over your beef and potatoes.

5. As the finale approaches (about an hour left), rain down the shredded cheese and bread crumbs over the top.
6. Seal it with its lid and wait for the cheese to melt into a bubbly golden layer.
Dive into this hearty casserole while it’s still warm, and let every bite take you down a comforting memory lane. A meal this delightful doesn’t just feed the stomach; it nourishes the soul.
