How to Make Cheesy Beefy Potato Casserole in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
This recipe is just wonderful and checks all the boxes. It is easy to make, tastes and smells great and cooks quickly. The ingredients for this Cheesy Beefy Crock Pot Potato Casserole are mostly budget friendly. I have made this recipe with generic cream of celery soup, store brand American cheese and a cheaper ground beef (not the leanest) to help keep the cost down. You can generally get potatoes pretty inexpensively, and you will still have some leftover to make side dishes for other meals.
