MOM'S HAMBURGER AND GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE
This recipe was passed down from my grandmother, to my mother and now I make it frequently. It's a big hit with hubby. It is also another one of those recipes that show how they stretched a pound of hamburger to feed a family. A salad goes along nicely with this.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Brown the ground beef. Drain.
- Empty tomato soup into a casserole dish. (I use an oval pyrex 11X81/2X3).
- Pour 1/2 of can of green bean juice into soup. Drain rest of green beans and add to dish.
- Add dehydrated onion, salt, and pepper.
- Mix.
- Add drained ground beef into soup mixture. Mix well.
- Beat egg and add to mashed potatoes. Mix well.
- Top meat mixture with mashed potatoes.
- Don't cover green bean mixture completely, leave a little area all around to allow mixture to bubble and not bubble over.
- Try to make peaks with the potatoes for and extra special look.
- Bake 30-45 minutes or until potatoes are browned.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your casserole.
- Don't overcook the pasta. It should be al dente, or slightly firm to the bite.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different cheeses. A blend of cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan is a classic choice, but you can also try other types of cheese, such as Gouda, Gruyère, or Fontina.
- Top the casserole with a crispy topping. This could be made from breadcrumbs, crushed crackers, or grated Parmesan cheese.
- Let the casserole rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and the casserole to set.
