Total Time: 1 hour 45 minutes
Recipe Category: One Dish Meal
Keywords: Meat, Oven, Beginner Cook, < 4 Hours, Easy

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 hamburger patties
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 medium potatoes, diced
1 cup milk
1 can (10 oz) Rotel Tomatoes (diced tomatoes with green chilies)
1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Casserole Base:

    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
    • In a large skillet, fry the hamburger patties with chopped onion and minced garlic until the meat is browned and the onions are translucent. Drain any excess grease.
  2. Assemble the Casserole:

    • Transfer the cooked hamburger and onion mixture into a lightly greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
    • Add the diced potatoes to the baking dish, mixing them with the hamburger mixture evenly.
  3. Prepare the Sauce:

    • In a bowl, combine the milk, Rotel Tomatoes (including the liquid), and chopped parsley. Stir well to mix everything together.
  4. Bake the Casserole:

    • Pour the milk and tomato mixture over the hamburger and potato mixture in the baking dish. Stir gently to combine all ingredients.
    • Cover the baking dish with foil and place it in the preheated oven.
  5. Cooking Process:

    • Bake the casserole for about 1 hour, or until the potatoes are tender. It’s a good idea to stir the casserole once during the cooking process to ensure even cooking.
  6. Finish with Cheese:

    • Once the casserole is cooked through, remove it from the oven.
    • Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the top of the casserole.
    • Return the casserole to the oven, uncovered, and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Serve:

    • Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for about 5 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
  8. Enjoy your Hamburger “Comfort Food” Casserole!
