1234 Casserole - Crockpot

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 2 onions, sliced
  • 3 carrots, thinly sliced
  • 4 potatoes, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 cup cold water

  • 10 3/4 ounces canned cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Method

  1. Begin by layering the ground beef, sliced onions, and thinly sliced carrots into a greased slow cooker. Season this layer with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
  2. In a separate bowl, dissolve the cream of tartar in the cold water. Toss the thinly sliced potatoes in this mixture, then drain them.
  3. Mix together the canned cream of mushroom soup and the milk. Combine this creamy mixture with the drained potatoes. Add the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper to the potatoes.
  4. Arrange the potato mixture over the other ingredients in the slow cooker.
  5. Place the lid on the slow cooker. Cook the casserole on the low setting for 7-9 hours.
  6. For variations, you can use sour cream instead of milk. Another option is to top the potatoes with 1/2 cup of shredded cheese.
