Cooking Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 375°. Spray a 9x13 inch pan with cooking spray.
  • Cook the beef, onions and garlic in a large skillet until the beef is no longer pink. Drain well. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Place a layer of potatoes over the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan, then add half of the beef.
  • Combine the mushroom and chicken soup together and mix in the milk and evaporated milk with a whisk. Pour half of the soup over the beef and sprinkle with half of the cheese.
  • Repeat the layers and top with the remaining cheese.
  • Place a piece of tinfoil over the pan, making sure to tent it so it doesn't bake to the cheese.
