Ingredients
  

For the Casserole
  • 1 pound Ground Beef or turkey for a lighter version
  • 28 ounces Frozen French Fries or tater tots for a crunchy alternative
  • 2 cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese mix of cheeses can be used
  • 1 cup Diced Onions or bell peppers
  • 1/2 cup Pickles (Diced) adjust to taste
  • 1/2 cup Ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon Mustard
  • 1/4 cup Milk omit for thicker texture
  • 1/4 cup Mayonnaise can substitute with Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder optional
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder optional
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley for garnish

Equipment

  • large skillet
  • 9x13-inch baking dish

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef, seasoning it with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Cook for about 6-7 minutes until the beef is browned and no longer pink. Drain any excess grease.
  2. Stir in the ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise. If using diced onions and pickles, fold them in now.
  3. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Layer the frozen French fries, then the seasoned beef mixture, and finally top with shredded cheddar cheese.
  4. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden, and the fries are crispy.
  5. Let the casserole cool for about 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For an extra crispy texture, pre-bake your French fries. Mix different cheeses for more flavor variety. Line your baking dish with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
