Casserole with meat

Here's a hearty recipe for a meat casserole that's both filling and delicious:

Meat and Potato Casserole

Ingredients:

• 1 pound ground beef (or turkey)
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 4 cups potatoes, sliced (you can use Yukon gold or russet)
• 1 can (15 oz) diced tomatoes (drained)
• 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
• 1 cup beef broth (or water)
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Olive oil or butter for sautéing
• Optional: chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Brown the Meat: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until soft. Add the ground beef and cook until browned. Drain excess fat.

3. Season the Meat: Stir in the drained tomatoes, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for a few more minutes, then remove from heat.

4. Layer the Casserole: In a greased casserole dish, layer half of the sliced potatoes on the bottom. Add the meat mixture on top, then layer the remaining potatoes. Pour the beef broth over the top.

5. Cover and Bake: Cover the casserole dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes. After that, remove the foil, sprinkle the cheese on top, and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

6. Serve: Let it cool for a few minutes, then garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!

This casserole is great for leftovers and can easily be customized with different vegetables or spices. Enjoy your meal!
