A twist on McFadden Flats

A couple of weeks ago, we had a potluck lunch at work for boss's day. Our receptionist, Carolyn, made the main dish, which was a casserole she calls "McFadden Flats". It is a layered casserole that goes like this:

1 lb. ground beef on the bottom of the pan
one layer sliced bell pepper
one layer sliced onion
one layer sliced potatoes
salt and pepper
1 can tomato soup (+ can water)

Cook on 300/325 for several hours (6ish)

Last night Levi made the casserole with a little twist. Either way it's delicious, but since I'm picky I prefer the Levi way. He made it in the crockpot like this:

1 lb. ground beef on the bottom
sliced potatoes
baby carrots
salt and pepper
Daddy Hinkles meat marinade (the powdered part only)
1 can tomato soup (+ can water)

Cook on high 4 hours or so

Enjoy! This meal makes GREAT leftovers!
