Leek Casserole with Meat and Potatoes image

I prefer to use a mixture of ground beef and ground pork for this easy casserole with lots of leeks, potatoes, tomatoes, and cheese. I often make it in advance up until the final cheese stage. Just cover and refrigerate and then when you're ready to bake it, sprinkle with cheese and throw it into the oven.

This casserole was a bit too salty for my taste. I think it would have been better if I had used less salt. Other than that, it was a good recipe. The leeks and potatoes were cooked perfectly.

This is one of my favorite recipes. It's so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I usually make it with leftover mashed potatoes, but you could also use instant mashed potatoes.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper, and it was much better. I also think it would have been better with some cheese on top. Overall, it was a good recipe, but I would make some changes next time.
