Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 onion, diced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 carrots, diced
• 2 celery stalks, diced
• 1 russet potato, diced
• 1 cup frozen green beans
• 1 can cream of mushroom soup
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.5 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley
• 0.5 cup buttered breadcrumbs
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish and set aside.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it into crumbles with a wooden spoon. Drain any excess grease and transfer the beef to a plate.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the diced onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Sauté for 5 minutes, or until the vegetables start to soften.

Step 4

Add the diced potato to the skillet and cook for another 3 minutes. Stir in the frozen green beans, ground beef, salt, pepper, thyme, and parsley. Mix well.

Step 5

In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, milk, and 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until smooth and creamy.

Step 6

Transfer the beef and vegetable mixture to the prepared casserole dish, spreading it out in an even layer.

Step 7

Pour the creamy sauce over the beef mixture, ensuring it covers everything evenly. Sprinkle the top with the remaining 0.5 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix the buttered breadcrumbs and parsley. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the casserole.

Step 9

Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbling and the topping is golden brown.

Step 10

Let the casserole cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Hamburger Harvest Casserole!
