Instructions
1. Preheat the oven
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prep the ingredients
Peel and thinly slice the potatoes, chop the onion, and shred the cheddar cheese.
3. Cook the ground beef
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and chopped onion. Cook until the beef is browned and the onion is softened. Drain any excess fat.
4. Make the casserole layers
In a small bowl, whisk together cream of mushroom soup, milk, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. In a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, layer half of the sliced potatoes, then half of the cooked beef mixture, and half of the shredded cheese. Repeat the layers with the remaining ingredients.
5. Add the soup mixture
Pour the soup mixture evenly over the layered casserole.
6. Bake
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 60–70 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
7. Garnish and serve
Remove the foil, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and let the casserole rest a few minutes before serving.
