Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lb ground beef
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup crushed butter crackers (optional topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  2. Brown the ground beef and onion in a large skillet over medium heat. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Stir in the garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for one minute.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup, milk, and mustard until smooth.
  5. Add the cooked beef mixture, crumbled bacon, and half of the cheddar cheese to the soup mixture. Stir to combine everything well.
  6. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  7. Top evenly with the remaining cheddar cheese and the mozzarella cheese.
  8. If using, sprinkle the crushed butter crackers over the cheese layer.
  9. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the topping is golden brown.
  10. Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For a low-carb or keto version, omit the crushed butter crackers and reduce the milk to 1/4 cup, replacing the liquid with 1/4 cup heavy cream.
  • You can substitute cream of chicken soup for cream of mushroom soup if you prefer.
  • For a tangier flavor, add 2 tablespoons of sweet pickle relish to the beef mixture before baking.
