Before you start

Have a greased 13×9 baking dish ready. Use both condensed soups undiluted.

FoodSafety.gov recommends checking doneness with a food thermometer: ground beef must reach 160°F (71°C) while browning, and the finished casserole must reach 165°F (74°C) before serving. If either checkpoint has not been reached, continue browning or baking, respectively, until it is met.

Ingredient notes

  • Condensed golden mushroom soup and condensed cheddar cheese soup: Use both soups undiluted.
  • Frozen french fries: Use crinkle-cut fries for the topping.
