Meaty, cheesy, delicious hamburger casserole from Jill Bauer of JustJill.com: Try the recipe
If you're hungry for a hamburger alternative, try making this casserole recipe for family dinner or a potluck gathering.
"Straight from my grandmother’s recipe collection, this hamburger casserole is ultra comforting," said Jill Bauer, a Pennsylvania resident and food and lifestyle expert behind JustJill.com.
"While the name may say otherwise, it doesn’t taste exactly like your all-American burger," she said. "Instead, it has a bit of a Mexican flair thanks to the sour cream, and it pairs perfectly with crescent rolls or bread, similar to a scrumptious pasta dish."
