From LaGrange, Georgia, Kim Rocker writes, “This is an easy dish to prepare ahead of time, refrigerate and bake just before company arrives.” Canned soup makes this casserole creamy but it still cuts well for serving.

Awesome!!! It needs more seasoning-salt, pepper, garlic, mushrooms, onions- but it is definitely soemthing that will be made again and frozen!

This was a huge hit in my house. I have to admit I was skeptical when I read the ingredients (sour cream), but I made it anyway based on all of the 5-star reviews. I am so glad I did. Everyone said that they want it to become a regular meal in our house.

My family all loved this dish. With the ease of bottled sauces and canned soup, it saves a lot of time in prep. I did caramelized some onions before browning the meat and also added some Italian seasoning and salt and pepper to the sauce. I shared the extra casserole with my daughter's family and they also gave it a good report.

Suprisingly delicious! The soup adds a lot of flavor! Next time I will try the cream cheese and add 1 can tomato sauce and 1 can of tomato paste to try to keep it from being too liquidy. Can't wait to make it again!

I added cream cheese like others suggested & used cream of celery soup instead of mushroom. This was pretty bland until i added salt, pepper, garlic powder & parmasan cheese & then it was YUMMY!

Will make again.

Very tastey recipe. I personally adapted it and added ingredients & spices for added flavor. i also adapted to be a low carb recipe with under 50 carbs/serving. I adapted it to be vegatarian for family who do not eat meat or dairy . Recommend this recipe be tried, adapted and tasted. You won't be sorry.I make the casserole ahead, wrap it and freeze; write instructions for my family or whoever I give it to on the wrapping under a saran wrap or in a freezer bag. I am asked to make this for a local shelter at least once a month. I make several single servings and casserole or larger sizes for the shelter, sick & shut in and seniors to freeze and eith microwave/rewarm or bake.

I substitute 1/2 of the ground beef with Italian sausage. Husband and I love this! I always try to keep at least one of the frozen ones on hand for us and a SECOND one to give to friends or family who may need a little help in the kitchen after illness, vacation, etc. Very good!
