I came up with this version of a beefy potato and tomato casserole that does not use any cream of soups. It is a simple recipe to make and the best part is you can use one pan for it all. You will need the following ingredients:
Recipe:
1 pound of ground chuck
1 pint of tomatoes
5 – 6 medium potatoes, sliced thin
1 16 oz can of diced tomatoes in juice
1/2 of an onion, sliced thin
2 carrots, sliced thinly
1 1/2 cups of shredded cheese, I used 1/2 cup of cheddar and 1 cup of monterery jack cheese
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Note: I use a cast iron large skillet with a lid to bake this in but you could put this in a casserole dish and cover with foil.

Preheat a large skillet to medium high heat and add the ground chuck. Season this with salt and pepper and cook unitl cooked through. Turn off the heat and remove the meat to a plate or bowl and wipe the grease out of the skillet with a paper towel.
Layer the potatoes into the bottom of the skillet in a level layer and season with salt and pepper.
