Ground Beef Veggie Hobo Casserole
Ingredients
1 lb (450 g) ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cups frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, green beans)
4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (optional)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp Italian seasoning
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp onion powder
Salt and black pepper, to taste
¼ cup beef broth
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
Add the ground beef and cook until browned. Drain excess grease.
Stir in the garlic, paprika, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Add the frozen mixed vegetables and beef broth. Cook for 3–4 minutes.
Meanwhile, boil the diced potatoes for 8–10 minutes, just until slightly tender. Drain well.
Fold the potatoes into the beef and vegetable mixture.
Transfer everything to the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
Sprinkle the cheddar cheese and mozzarella over the top.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.
