Insanely easy casserole recipes like this one go great with green bean side dishes or easy side salads.

How can you store leftover cheeseburger french fry casserole?

Store leftover cheeseburger french fry casserole covered in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight, and reheat in a small casserole dish in the oven or air-fryer until the beef is heated through and the fries are crispy. You could also reheat the casserole in the microwave, but the fries won't be crispy.
