One-Pan Cheesy Meat & Potato Skillet: A Simple Family Favorite

Are you on the lookout for a dish that’s as comforting as it is convenient? Look no further than the One-Pan Cheesy Meat & Potato Skillet!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground meat beef, turkey, or sausage
  • 12 small potatoes diced
  • 1 can cream soup any flavor
  • 3/4 cup milk or a mix of water & sour cream
  • Seasonings of choice e.g., salt, pepper, garlic powder
  • Shredded cheese for topping

Instructions
 

  • Brown the Meat: In a large skillet, heat the pan over medium heat. Add the ground meat and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. If there's excess grease, be sure to drain it before moving on to the next step.
  • Add the Potatoes: Stir in the diced potatoes, making sure they’re evenly distributed throughout the meat. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender. This should take about 15-20 minutes.
  • Incorporate the Cream Soup and Milk: Once the potatoes are soft, stir in the cream soup and milk. Mix everything together until the potatoes are well coated and the mixture is creamy.
  • Season to Taste: Sprinkle in your favorite seasonings, adjusting to your taste. This is where you can really personalize the dish.
  • Melt the Cheese: Finally, sprinkle shredded cheese over the top of the skillet. Cover the pan and let it sit for a few minutes, allowing the cheese to melt.
  • Serve Hot: Once the cheese is melted and gooey, serve your One-Pan Cheesy Meat & Potato Skillet hot, and enjoy!
