FAQs
Can I use a different type of potato? Yes, while Russet potatoes are ideal for their starchy quality and ability to absorb flavors, feel free to use Yukon Gold or even sweet potatoes for a different twist.
What can I substitute for cream of mushroom soup? If you prefer, you can use cream of chicken or even a homemade white sauce seasoned with mushroom powder or diced fresh mushrooms.
Is this casserole freezer-friendly? Yes, you can freeze the casserole either before or after baking. Just make sure to wrap it well in foil and it should keep for up to 3 months.
How can I make this dish vegetarian? Swap the ground beef for a plant-based meat alternative or cooked lentils to keep the hearty texture without the meat.
