One Pot Cheeseburger Casserole is delicious and ready in less than 30 minutes!
It’s that time of year where I have little time between the kids coming home from school to when we have to leave for after-school activities. This is the time of year that I rely on quick and easy meals that everyone will love.
One pot meals are my go-to! You simply throw everything in the pot and in 30 minutes you have dinner ready! They don’t require a lot of prep-work which is always a plus in my book.
This One Pot Cheeseburger Casserole has become a family favorite! It has the flavors that everyone loves and doesn’t complain about eating. It makes a ton so you can have it again for leftovers or send for school lunches (gotta love a Thermos!).
