I love being able to make my dinner a head of time. And now with my work schedule it is very important to have healthy good dinner ready for when my husband comes home from work. I am done work before he is so I can turn the oven on and get this cooking so that when he comes in the door dinner is done and ready to go on the table.
Potato Bake Casserole
1lb Ground Meat (chicken, turkey, beef or pork)
1/2 Onion, diced
1/2 tsp Oregano
1/4 tsp Salt
to taste Pepper
2 cloves Garlic (minced)
3 cups Frozen Vegetables (Corn, peas, carrots or a mix)
1 TBSP Butter
1 TBSP Flour
1 1/2 cup Milk
1/2 cup Cheese (shredded)
1/2 cup Sour Cream
6 Medium Potatoes (cubed)
Preheat over to 400 degrees
Prepare a 9x13 baking dish.
Heat in a large skillet over medium heat - ground meat, onion, oregano, salt and pepper. Cook stirring often and crumbling the meat until the onions are tender and meat is cooked through. Stir in garlic and frozen vegetables and continue until vegetables are heated through.
In a smaller pan melt butter and then whisk in flour until smooth. Continue whisking as you add in milk slowly to keep mixture smooth. When mixture has come to a slow boil remove from heat and add in cheese.
Stir in sour cream to meat mixture and spread meat mixture into prepared baking dish. Arrange potatoes in an even layer over meat mixture before pouring sauce evenly over the potatoes.
Bake in a preheated oven for 45 to 60 minutes, until your potatoes are browned to your liking.
Happy Cooking!
