Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs ground beef
1 yellow onion, finely diced
4 lbs russet potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/4-inch thin
2 cups cheddar cheese, grated
1 (10.75 oz) can condensed Cheddar soup
1 (12 oz) can evaporated milk
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare a 9×13-inch baking dish by spraying it with nonstick spray.
2. Cook the beef: In a large skillet, cook ground beef and onion over medium-high heat. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until beef is no longer pink, then drain the fat and set aside.
3. Layer the casserole: Arrange a single layer of sliced potatoes in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top with 1/4 of the cooked beef mixture and 1/4 of the shredded cheddar cheese. Repeat this process three more times to create four layers.
4. Make the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the condensed cheddar soup, evaporated milk, regular milk, and garlic powder until smooth. Pour this mixture evenly over the casserole.
5. Bake: Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake for 60 minutes. Then, uncover and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the top is golden and bubbly.
