Hamburger Green Bean Casserole Bake

Instructions

1. Cook the Beef

1. In a skillet, cook ground beef with the diced onion until browned.Break the beef into small crumbles as it cooks; the onion should soften and become translucent, adding sweetness and aroma. Drain excess grease to prevent the casserole from becoming heavy.

2. Mix It Up

2. In a large bowl, combine the beef mixture with the cream of mushroom soup, milk, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and drained green beans.Stir slowly but thoroughly so the soup base distributes evenly, creating a creamy coating around the meat and vegetables. The mixture should be cohesive but not overly thick.

3. Assemble the Casserole

3. Transfer the mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.Smooth the surface with a spatula so it bakes evenly.
4. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.The cheese will melt into a golden, bubbling layer as it bakes.
