Mom's Tangy Beef Casserole

Submitted by Bruce Casey Lau

"This is one of my favorites from when I was a kid. Mom, having four growing boys, had to come up with things that tasted good and quick to make."

 

• Ready In: 50mins
• Ingredients: 9
• Serves: 6-8

ingredients

• 2 lbs lean ground beef
• 1 medium onion, chopped

• 2 cans condensed tomato soup
• 2 tablespoons steak sauce (I use A-1)
• 1 teaspoon seasoned pepper
• 1 dash crushed red pepper flakes
• 2 lbs potatoes, mashed

directions

1. Start potatoes to boil for mashing.
2. Brown beef with peppers and steak sauce, add onions towards the end of the browning so they soften slightly.
3. Drain browned beef leaving enough of the juices for flavor and place in a medium casserole dish.
4. Add beans, soup and corn if desired and stir to mix well.
5. Spread mashed potatoes on top of mixture.
6. Bake covered in an oven preheated to 375 for 25 minutes.
7. Optionally remove covering and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes to brown the potato.

Everyone had seconds and we still had leftovers. I used 16 oz of frozen green beans, 1 1/2 cups of frozen corn and Heinz 57 sauce was the only steak sauce I had. I think next time I'll try useing only one can of tomato soup. Very good thank you.

This is a dish Bruce has made for me a couple of times. It really is a nice, warm, hearty casserole on a cold winter night. It is quite tasty and very filling... kind of sticks to your ribs. Garlic toast is a nice complement to this and a dish of cucumber slices. Bruce's well fed wife!
