Shipwreck Baked Bean Casserole

Submitted by wicked cook 46

"This is a family fave and a bit different then the other ones posted. Cooking time includes browning the ground beef and is approximate. As stated in a review I forgot to add salt and pepper in the ingredient list.So add to taste. Use whatever kind of potatoes you have on hand. I have used red, Yukon Gold etc."

Pure comfort food! This casserole is easy to make, tasty and filling. I left out the onions (replaced with celery), otherwise made as specified. My tomato soup made kind of a crust on top which looked unusual but tasted great. Thanks for posting this recipe!

I loved this casserole (and I'm in a land-locked state!). I didn't have any problem reading through the recipe. I used 4 russet potatoes, Bush's original baked beans and 1 1/4 cups of organic tomato basil soup. Oohhh la la delicious! I did add some salt and pepper to each layer. I will make this AGAIN and can't wait to munch on the left-overs tomorrow. Made for 1-2-3 Hit Wonders Tag Game.

I am writing this review as it is written. It makes it difficult that the ingredients are out of order, but it's not too big of a deal when there is such a short list. It was frustrating that it does not say what size potatoes or type. I used some larger red potatoes that I had on hand. In the instructions it calls for the use of salt and pepper, but those are not included in the ingredients list. The soup was burned on the edges after an hour baking time, so I would check it at 45 minutes. It was a bit bland tasting, so I added some Lawrys season salt to the meat mixture, as well as a couple cloves of garlic. DH really liked this and we will make it again with some changes. He suggested adding some cheese to the top. It was very quick to prepare and easy to serve. The sweetness was a nice change of pace. I liked the potatoes and meat flavor together. All in all, it is a good dish, but the recipe needs a little work. Made and Reviewed for Photo Tag - Thanks! :)

Easy to make. One person slices while other person sautés. Layer together and relax while it bakes! We all loved it! Felt like camping food.

Thank you Wicked Cook 46. This is my Mom's recipe and I remember when she made this for the family of 7. We all just ate it up and is one of my favorite comfort foods. I was looking for a recipe without the rice and with the beans in it. So glad you posted it. Even though it such an easy recipe. Frostyprecious
