- 1.5 pounds ground beef
- 1 medium sweet onion diced
- 1 large stalk celery diced
- 1 15.25 ounce can of corn drained
- 1 10.5 ounce can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 10.5 ounce can cream of celery soup
- 1 cup milk
- 2 pounds Russet potatoes roughly 4 large peeled, thinly sliced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cups grated cheddar cheese
- 2 cups cornflakes crushed
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray.
- In a large skillet, cook the ground beef along with the onion and celery, over medium-high heat until no longer pink.
- Drain excess liquid if desired.
- Stir in the corn. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, combine the soups and milk, stirring with a whisk to fully incorporate.
- In the prepared baking dish, layer half the ground beef mix. Top with half the sliced potatoes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Spread half the soup mixture over the potatoes, top with half the cheese.
- Repeat with remaining meat mixture, potatoes, soup mixture, and finish with cheese.
- Cover with foil and bake for 1 hour.
- While baking, combine the melted butter with the cornflakes.
- After the 1 hour, remove the foil and top with cornflake crumbs.
- Bake uncovered for 5-10 minutes or until the top is lightly browned and the potatoes are fork tender.
- Remove, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve.
Notes
- When reheating your casserole, if you notice that it is a little dry you can add beef broth or beef stock to help rehydrate it.
- If you like a thicker, creamy consistency to your casserole, try incorporating heavy cream, cream cheese, or a cup of sour cream into the mix to thicken it.
- For a different flavor profile, you can use tomato sauce or tomato paste in place of the cream of mushroom and celery soup.
- Add more veggies to your diet by throwing in some bell peppers at the same time that you add your corn.
- If you don’t have time to cut up different potatoes for your recipe, you can easily swap them out with tater tots or hash browns to cut down on the prep time!
- Experiment with different toppings for this casserole, like green onions and jalapenos or chili powder and a dollop of sour cream. Worcestershire sauce is another common one, because it pairs nicely with the type of potato picked for this recipe!
