This is a good basic casserole and easy to make with what is in the pantry. Like other reviewers I added some spices such as italian seasoning, garlic powder and onion powder.

This was very good and very easy. Like previous reviewers I added spices to increase the flavors... cumin, italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, in addition to the salt and pepper. Yum, will definitely make again.

This recipe has potential. I thought it lacked a bit of spice, so next time [yes, there will be a next time:)] I will add some garlic and maybe onions with the meat. Maybe try various spices. I used extra lean ground beef, because I prefer it. I only used the one can of soup, and thought is was enough liquid. The frozen vegetables has a bit bit of liquid in them, so using 2 cans would make it to soupy in my opinio

My husband loved this. Very quick and easy and great on a cold night. I used canned green beans instead of the mixed frozen vegetables. It was good, but I think the mixed veggies would have added more flavor and texture. I also added a small can (4oz) of diced green chiles. Next time I will add two cans of chiles. Per the other reviews, I did add an extra can of Cream of Mushroom soup. It was a little soupy for me, but would have been too dry without it. Next time I will go with one can of soup and a little milk.

I have made this for my family more than once and they love it. I love being asked what's for dinner when I cook this meal so I can say "I don't know"! It's not difficult, it's tasty and at least includes vegetables.

Mom made this when my sister and I were kids. Instead of using frozen mixed veggies, Mom would use frozen broccoli. She also doubled the cheese. I want to say she added whatever spices she had on hand as well and added a soup can of milk. Great to make to take a walk down memory lane, but needs a little more gussied up for me now.

I love this title!! Perfect casserole for hard working MOMS. I had2 boxes of scalloped potatoes and canned milk. I added the cheese sauce mix and the milk to make up for my lack of cream of mushroom soup. This was tasty and rib sticking. Thank You Kristen

I make a recipe very similar to this one but instead of ground beef i use ground turkey; its much cheaper, much leaner, and honestly no one would ever taste the difference. Also I use tater tots in place of the sliced potatoes;make sure they are nice and crispy YUM. Also I throw in a chopped onion in with the ground turkey along with some S&P and garlic.

This is a nice and hearty casserole, but it was kind of bland. I added some crumbled bacon on top and that helped but the recipe really needs some more seasoning...maybe garlic powder or I see someone used onion powder. That would certainly help. This makes a good leftover, but I now eat it with ketchup.
