# Instructions:

Transfer the mixture to a greased 9×13 inch baking dish and spread it evenly.

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the casserole.
06 -
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the cheese is melted.

# Notes:
01 -
For extra flavor, try using 80/20 ground beef. Fresh green beans (blanched) can be substituted for canned. You can assemble this casserole ahead and refrigerate before baking—add 5-10 minutes to the baking time if chilled.
