Ingredients
- 14 ounces O’Brien hash brown potatoes with or without onions & peppers, frozen
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 cup diced red bell pepper
- 1 cup diced green bell pepper
- ½ cup diced yellow onion
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese divided
- 1 10.5-ounce can cream of mushroom soup
- ½ cup milk
- ¼ cup sour cream
Instructions
- Remove the O’Brien hash browns from the freezer and set aside.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook and crumble the ground beef with the red pepper, green pepper, and onion until beef is browned and onions are translucent; drain.
- Stir in Worcestershire, dried parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until coated.
- Transfer the beef mixture to a 5–6 quart slow cooker. Add 1 cup cheddar, the cream of mushroom soup, milk, and sour cream; stir until creamy.
- Fold in the hash brown potatoes until evenly mixed.
- Cover and cook on LOW 3–4 hours (or HIGH ~2 hours), until potatoes are fork-tender; slow cookers vary, so check doneness.
- Sprinkle remaining 1 cup cheddar on top, cover, and cook 30 minutes more until melted and bubbly.
- Serve hot. (This Crock Pot Cheesesteak Potato Casserole is great with a fresh green salad.)
Notes
Tip: For the best melt, use freshly shredded cheddar. Variation: Swap ground beef for ground turkey and add sautéed mushrooms for classic cheesesteak vibes in your Crock Pot Cheesesteak Potato Casserole.
