I was starting to get into a cooking rut. It happens! Right? I decided to experiment a little bit. This ground meat potato casserole recipe was such a hit with my oldest son that I wasn’t sure my husband would get any at all. Teenagers!!! With meat, potatoes, peas, cheese, and creamy sauce… I guess I can’t blame him too much.

For this recipe, I used ground turkey. I buy it in bulk, cook it all with onions, bell peppers, and Tony’s seasoning with this recipe. After I divide it up, each bag is roughly 2 lbs of ground turkey. The same could easily be done with ground beef or ground chicken.

Ground Meat & Potato Casserole
January 12, 2016
Ingredients
- Frozen Pre-Cooked Ground Meat seasoned (I use ground turkey)
- Frozen Diced Hashbrown Potatoes (2 lb bag)
- 2 Cans of Peas (drained)
- 1 Can of Cream of Chicken Soup
- 1 Can of Cream of Celery Soup
- 1/2 Can of Water
- Salt & Pepper to taste
- Roughly about 1 cup of shredded cheese added at the end
Instructions
- If your pre-cooked and frozen ground meat is a big chunk, you can either give it a little extra time in the slow cooker to loosen it or microwave it just enough to crumble.
- Combine the ground meat, frozen diced potatoes, peas, cream soups, and water in the slow cooker.
- Stir to combine it well.
- Cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours adjusting times for your appliance as needed.
- Adjust salt & pepper to taste.
- Add shredded cheese on top allowing just enough time to melt before serving.
It just doesn’t get much easier! I already have plans to experiment with some more slow cooker recipes coming up. Keep your eyes peeled.
