Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup 10 oz can
  • 2 cans cheddar cheese soup 10 oz cans
  • 1 package frozen french fries approximately 23 ounces (650g package)
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • green onions for garnish, if desired

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Spread the uncooked lean ground beef evenly across the bottom of a 9x13 inch casserole dish. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  3. In a bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup and both cans of cheddar cheese soup. Mix until well blended. Spread this creamy soup mixture over the ground beef layer in the casserole dish.
  4. Evenly arrange the frozen French fries on top of the soup layer.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until the ground beef is cooked through and the French fries are golden brown and crispy. Serve hot, garnished with green onions if desired.

Notes

This casserole is a fantastic weeknight meal that can be easily customized. For an extra cheesy touch, sprinkle some shredded cheddar cheese over the French fries before baking. You can also add a layer of sautéed onions or bell peppers for more flavor.
