REMIX-CHEESY BEEFY BAKED CASSEROLE
I created this remix meal idea from ingredients I had on hand, using Black Angus Beef from a Roast Beef Dinner. I really wanted to make my Faux Phylly Cheese Steak Sandwich, but needed other ingredients from the store. So I opted to make something with what I had on hand. This dish was so tasty and good, my husband devoured...

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9 X12 size casserole dish with cooking spray and set aside till needed.
- 2. These are most of the ingredients you will need to make the casserole.
- 3. Cut up the left over roast beef into strips chunks or bite size pieces as desired, you can also add any left over veggies from the roast as well if desired.
- 4. Add the olive or canola oil to a large skillet, then sauté the onions and peppers about 5 minutes before adding in the meat.
- 5. Stir until heated through, season with the cumin and chili or spices of your choice, stir until blended together and heated through.
- 6. Add in the boiled potatoes, green Beans and diced tomatoes. Stir till heated. I chose to cut the larger potatoes in halves before adding to the casserole dish, but use your own discretion.
- 7. Pour meat mixture into prepared casserole dish, then top with both cans of the undiluted cream of chicken soup, and top with the shredded cheddar cheese.
- 8. Place in preheated 350 degree oven and bake for 45 minutes or until hot and bubbly and heated through.
- 9. Remove from oven and top with chopped chive or parsley just before serving. Enjoy.
Tips:
- Use a good quality ground beef. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your casserole. Look for ground beef that is at least 80% lean.
- Brown the ground beef thoroughly. This will help to develop its flavor and prevent it from being greasy.
- Don't be afraid to add some spice. A little bit of chili powder, cumin, or paprika can really liven up the flavor of the casserole.
- Use a variety of cheeses. This will give the casserole a more complex flavor. Cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan are all good choices.
- Don't overcook the casserole. The beef should be cooked through, but it should still be moist. Overcooked beef will be tough and dry.
Conclusion:
Cheesy beefy casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight. It is also a great way to use up leftover beef. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a hearty and satisfying casserole that the whole family will love. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give cheesy beefy casserole a try.
