Instructions

Preheat and Prep: Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Brown ground beef and drain any excess grease. Peel and thinly slice potatoes.
Make Sauce: In a medium bowl, combine cream of mushroom soup, milk, onion powder, and garlic powder. Stir until well blended.
Layer Casserole: Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish. Layer half of the potatoes, half of the ground beef, half of the soup mixture, and half of the cheese. Repeat layers.
Bake: Cover with foil and bake for 90 minutes. Check potatoes for tenderness and bake for an additional 15 minutes if needed.
Finish and Serve: Remove foil and top with remaining cheese. Bake for 15 minutes more, or until cheese is melted and bubbly. Let the casserole sit for 8-12 minutes before serving.

Notes

Baking times may vary depending on the type of potato, thickness of slices, and your oven.
For a richer flavor, you can use a combination of milk and half-and-half or heavy cream.
Feel free to add other vegetables to the casserole, such as diced onions or bell peppers.
