INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Brown the Meat: In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef or turkey until cooked through. Season with salt, pepper, and any desired herbs or spices for added flavor.
2. Layering Magic: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a greased baking dish, layer half of the sliced potatoes followed by half of the thinly sliced onions. Spread the cooked ground meat evenly over the potato and onion layer.
3. Creamy Binding: In a bowl, mix the condensed cream of mushroom soup with a little water or milk to reach a pourable consistency. Pour half of the soup mixture over the meat layer.
4. Repeat and Top with Cheese: Repeat the layering process with the remaining potatoes, onions, and soup mixture. Cover the casserole with foil and bake for about 45 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
5. Cheesy Finish: Uncover the casserole, sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the top, and return it to the oven. Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
