Hobo Casserole

 1 lb ground beef

2 potatoes, diced

1 onion, diced or sliced

1 can mushroom soup

1/4 C milk

4 slices american cheese

salt

pepper

Pressed the ground beef into the bottom of a 8x8 dish. No need to be even about it since it'll shrink. A bit random works best as that'll let more meat be in each scoop when it's done. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Cover with a layer of diced onions and a layer of diced potatoes. Sprinkle well with salt and pepper.

Lay out the cheese to cover the dish. Mix the soup and milk together and pour over the top, spreading it out if needed.

Cover with foil and bake at 350 for 1 1/2 hours, or until potatoes are tender. Uncover and bake about 10 minutes to brown the top.

The original recipe said to top with french fried onion before those last 10 minutes, but I never used them. Also, I tend to do this in a bigger dish and add more potatoes and onions. Makes more while not adding meat, so it's cheaper.
