Great recipe. I definitely recommend cooking the full 90 minutes so potatoes are tender.

I pre-cooked the potatoes for 5 min in the microwave in order to shorten the cooking time. Also added some julienned cabbage.

Tried this over the weekend with leftover pot roast. It was a big hit! I used the mushroom soup and added mushrooms. You could use bread crumbs with butter instead of cheese on top. I also precooked the potatoes in the microwave for 5 minutes so the casserole took about an hour in the oven. It was great reheated too. This one is a keeper!

I've made this casserole numerous times and it's always well received. It is also very forgiving in that I can add extra beef if I have it, leftover roast gravy, other veggies, etc. But the basic is hearty and delicious just as written. I love Cooks.com for the down-to-earth recipes I find here.
