2. Layer the Casserole
Grease a baking dish with butter.
Layer half of the sliced potatoes on the bottom.
Spread half of the creamy beef mixture.
Add remaining potatoes, then the rest of the beef.
Sprinkle with cheese on top.
3. Bake
Cover with foil and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 35 minutes.
Remove foil and bake another 15 minutes until golden and bubbly.

Garnish with chopped parsley.
Serving Suggestions
