Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish.
  • In a skillet, cook the ground beef, onion, and garlic over medium heat until the beef is browned and the onion is tender.
  • Season the beef mixture with salt, pepper, paprika, and oregano.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the cream of mushroom soup and milk until well combined.

Assembly

  • Layer half of the frozen French fries in the bottom of the baking dish.
  • Top the fries with the beef mixture and half of the shredded cheddar cheese.
  • Pour the soup mixture over the beef layer.
  • Add the remaining French fries on top and sprinkle the rest of the cheddar cheese over the casserole.

Baking

  • Cover the dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
  • Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the fries are crispy.

Serving

  • Let the casserole sit for a few minutes after you take it out of the oven, then scoop onto plates and serve warm.
  • Add your favorite toppings like ketchup, mustard, or pickles for extra zing!

Notes

To store leftovers, let the casserole cool completely, then place in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days. It can be frozen for up to 2 months in a freezer-safe container.
