1 pound ground beef
4 medium potatoes, sliced
1 can cream of mushroom soup Can be substituted with cream of chicken.
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese Alternatives include Monterey Jack or pepper jack.
1 medium onion, chopped
to taste salt and pepper

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large skillet, cook the ground beef and onion over medium heat until the beef is browned. Drain any excess fat.

In a baking dish, layer half of the sliced potatoes at the bottom, followed by half of the beef mixture.
Spread half of the cream of mushroom soup over the beef and sprinkle with half of the shredded cheese.
Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients, finishing with the cheese on top.

Cover the dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the cheese is bubbly.
Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.

For added flavor, consider using herbs like garlic powder or paprika. To make it healthier, substitute with sweet potatoes or plant-based meats.
