This casserole is easy, yummy and filling. It’s similar to shepherd’s pie but with more of a country twist by using cream of chicken soup to create a gravy. This is my country hamburger casserole.
Special Ingredients or Equipment Needed:
This is a pretty basic recipe using ingredients you should be able to find nearly anywhere and everywhere. This casserole is very close in nature to a shepherd’s pie. For the base, you cook ground beef or ground turkey in cream of chicken gravy with mushrooms, onion, and corn. You put this into a casserole dish, top with mashed potatoes and bake it!
The main supplies you’ll need for the recipe are as follows:

You start off by combining ground beef or turkey with onion and garlic. Then you add mushrooms, corn and seasonings. Next you mix in the gravy. Lastly, like I mentioned above, transfer it into a casserole dish, then top with the potatoes and bake it. It’s not the prettiest looking dish, but it’s absolutely delicious! This is a recipe that really reminds me of home. It’s comfort food for sure.
