Ingredients

1 pound lean ground beef
0.5 cup diced yellow onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup beef broth
1 Tablespoon dried minced onion flakes
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder

3 cups shredded cheddar cheese divided use
1 cup sour cream
3 cups diced russet potatoes about 1-inch thick, about 3 small potatoes
1 cup diced carrots
1 Tablespoon dried parsley optional, for garnish

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a sauté pan add lean ground beef, diced yellow onion, and minced garlic over medium heat. Sauté for 5 to 7 minutes or until the juices run clear.
Add all-purpose flour. Stir for 1 minute.
Add beef broth, dried minced onion flakes, onion powder, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Stir for 1 minute.
Add 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and sour cream. Mix until combined.
Transfer the meat mixture to the baking dish.
Add diced russet potatoes and diced carrots. Stir until combined.
Top the casserole evenly with the remaining shredded cheddar cheese.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil.
Bake on the middle rack for about 30-35 minutes or until the potatoes and carrots are fork tender.
Evenly sprinkle dried parsley on top before serving.

Notes

If not using lean ground beef, you will need to drain excess grease. Oven times can vary, so please go by done-ness and not necessarily the exact baking time. Check with a fork; if the potatoes are not fork tender, allow it to cook for longer.
