3 medium russet - or - baking potatoes
salt, pepper, garlic powder, to taste
1 lb. ground beef
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 can cream mushroom soup
1 tsp. beef flavor concentrate
2 cans (14 to 15 oz.) green beans, drained
shredded cheddar cheese, for topping

Spray crockpot with cooking spray. Scrub potatoes, leave skin on, cut into small chunks (important - if chunks are too large, will take longer to cook, since every thing else will be basically done). Put potatoes on bottom of crockpot, season with the salt/pepper/garlic.

Brown beef and onion, drain. Put on top of potatoes. Mix cream of mushroom soup and beef concentrate. Drain green beans, put on top of potatoes. Pour mushroom soup over. Cover. Cook 3 hours on high, then turn to low, sprinkle cheese on top, cover and cook an additional 30 minutes.
