Mom-Mom's Cheeseburger Casserole image

This was a favorite of my Dad's, and I love it too! My Dad graduated to Heaven in 2005, so whenever I make this I think of him! Enjoy!

Categories     Burgers

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb lean ground beef
1/2 green pepper, chopped
1/2 onion, chopped
garlic powder, salt & pepper, to taste
2 can(s) stewed tomatoes, italian-style
*optional: can substitute 1 jar of salsa for a can of stewed tomatoes to give it a little kick!
1 lb box elbow macaroni, or pasta of choice
2 pkg (2 cups per pkg) shredded cheddar cheese, or whatever cheese you like (more if desired)

Steps:

  • 1. NOTE: In place of the hamburger, green pepper & onion & seasonings, my Mom would sometimes use some leftover from "Mom-Mom's Hamburger Stew" (see recipe) It's delicious either way!
  • 2. Brown the ground beef, & saute the pepper & onion with the seasonings until veggies are soft. Drain.
  • 3. Cook the macaroni until al dente. Drain.
  • 4. Spray a large casserole dish with cooking spray.
  • 5. Add 1/2 of the macaroni, then 1/2 of the ground beef, then 1 can stewed tomatoes & then 1/2 of the shredded cheese.
  • 6. Repeat layers, starting with macaroni and ending with cheese, adding a little more on top, if desired.
  • 7. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30-45 minutes, or until golden brown on top and bubbly.
  • 8. ** This freezes well! I sometimes divide this recipe between two 8x8 square, or 9-inch round, disposable foil pans giving me one meal to freeze for later.

This casserole was a bit dry. I think I'll add some more milk or broth next time.

This casserole was a bit too greasy for me. I think I'll drain the ground beef more thoroughly next time.

This casserole was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra seasonings next time.

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover ground beef. I also like to add some chopped vegetables to it, like onions, peppers, and carrots.

This casserole was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

This cheeseburger casserole was a hit with my family! It was easy to make and so delicious. I loved the combination of ground beef, cheese, and pasta. I will definitely be making this again.
