Notes
- Add Vegetables: Mix in some frozen peas, corn, or green beans to the beef mixture for added flavor and nutrients.
- Spicy Kick: Add a dash of hot sauce or sprinkle some red pepper flakes on top for a bit of spice.
- Different Fries: Try different types of frozen fries, like waffle fries or shoestring fries, for a unique twist on the casserole.
- Cheese Lover’s Version: Add shredded cheese (like cheddar or mozzarella) on top of the french fries for an extra cheesy layer.
