Beef and Hashbrown Casserole Recipe | RadaCutlery.com

sour cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: plain yogurt

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

shredded cheese

🥗Healthier: reduced-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: cheese blend

Reduced-fat cheese lowers calories without sacrificing flavor.

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a medium mixing bowl, combine 4 cups of frozen hash browns with 3 tablespoons of olive oil until well coated.

Press the hash browns into an 8x8 inch square baking dish.

Bake the hash browns in the oven for about 15 minutes.

In a medium saucepan, brown 1 pound of ground beef until fully cooked.

Drain the fat from the ground beef.

Add 1 cup of water and 1 envelope of brown gravy mix to the beef; stir to combine.

Bring the beef mixture to a boil and cook until it thickens, about 1-2 minutes.

Remove the beef mixture from heat and add 2 cups of frozen green beans and half of a 2.8 ounce can of french fried onions; stir to combine.

Add half of 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese to the mixture and stir until combined.

Pour the beef mixture over the baked hash browns in the baking dish.

Top with the remaining french fried onions and the remaining cheddar cheese.

Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the oven for 35 minutes.

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

Optionally, you can freeze the casserole for up to six months; thaw in the refrigerator overnight before baking.
