This Easy Cheeseburger Bake is what’s for dinner! Make this easy recipe and share the love with the family or overnight guests.
I love one dish meals in the fall and winter. They’re comfort food for me, not to mention they make dinner prep easier while juggling schedules for school and activities. Last month I shared one of my new favorites, sausage-egg bake, as part of my partnership with Betty Crocker’s Bisquick, and today I have another one for you.
This one uses ground beef in a way other than burgers, meatloaf, Italian, or Mexican. It’s a comfort casserole that you can serve out-of-town guests, or for the family’s weeknight meal. This is an easy cheeseburger bake that’s kind of like a cheeseburger in a casserole dish!
Cheeseburger Bake
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1 cup slice mushrooms {from a can, drained}
- 1/3 cup onion, diced
- 3 cups shredded Swiss or cheddar cheese
- 1 1/2 cups Bisquick
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 4 eggs, lightly beaten
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Cook ground beef and onions together until cooked through. Drain excess oil if necessary.
Spray a 13 x 9 inch baking dish with nonstick spray and add meat mixture to the bottom.
Layer on the mushrooms and 1 1/2 cup of the cheese.
Stir together Bisquick, milk, basil, pepper, and eggs until blended. Pour into baking dish.
Bake 25-30 minutes or until a pick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
Sprinkle with remaining cheese and bake about 2 more minutes until cheese is melted.
Cool for about 5 minutes before serving.
This dish is nice and hearty and can also be prepared ahead of time and kept in the refrigerator until ready to bake.
TIP: As always, never put a cold dish from the refrigerator into a heated oven. Put the dish into the oven and then turn it on so they heat up together. Bake as directed.
