CROCK POT SLOPPY JOE CASSEROLE
I was so thrilled with how this came out. It's a very simple recipe but it is a fun and new way to eat your meat and potatoes. It ain't the prettiest meal you ever saw but it sure does taste good!
With this recipe, we are definitely thinking outside of the bun. Feel free to add in any other veggies or seasoning that you enjoy. Green peppers or red peppers would be great in this!
INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (FULL RECIPE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST)
frozen shredded hash brown potatoes
condensed cheddar cheese soup
egg
salt & pepper
ground beef
onion
sloppy joe sauce
shredded cheddar cheese
Note: you can substitute the shredded hash browns for southern style hash browns, which are the smaller cubed potatoes or you can use the Potatoes O'Brien that have peppers and onion mixed in with the cubed potatoes.
HOW TO MAKE THIS SLOPPY JOE CASSEROLE:
Spray your 5-qt crock pot (slow cooker) with nonstick cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine shredded potatoes with the soup, egg, salt & pepper.
Stir well then spread it in the bottom of the crock pot.
Spoon sloppy joe mixture over hash brown mixture in crock pot.
Cover and cook on low for about 4 to 4 ½ hours.

Super excited to try this.
Just wondering if this meal could be doubled for the Crock-Pot?
Brandie @ The Country Cook
Hi Measha! I wouldn't recommend doubling it as it will cook unevenly. You could however use a second crock pot and do it that way. Hope it helps!

I made this when my parents came for an afternoon visit. I me too separate casseroles because I wanted something easy and wouldn't have to prepare while they were there. My husband and my parents loved this one! My husband has requested it almost weekly since that visit. I made it with shredded cheddar cheese the first time. The second time I made it I had some Velveeta shredded cheddar that I wanted to use up. My husband preferred it that way. I've been making it in the oven now that it's cooler outside. I always have the ingredients for two batches of this casserole! I typically serve it alongside a microwave steamer bag of vegetables.

good morning I was wondering if I could add Sour cream to this? If so would It be alright to do so the last 5-10 minutes before I serve it? I SO LOVE ALL YOUR RECIPES. Have a Blessed Day
Brandie @ The Country Cook
Hi Shellie Ann! Yes, I wouldn't add it in until towards the end so it doesn't curdle. Hope that helps!
Frances
Can you freeze this?
Marti
Do you thaw the frozen potatoes?
Dee
It says "thawed" in the recipe.

Hi Brandi ☺️
I have been trying all your casserole dishes and they have been the best meals for a teacher to cook with such short evenings!! I’m going to do your Sloppy Joe Casserole tomorrow night but make it in my casserole dish instead of my crockpot.....like I said.....short evenings!
Next Saturday night I’m making your Crock Pot Lasagna as my husband loves lasagna and can’t wait to make it this way!! I’ll let you know how it goes but thanks so much for these yummy meals!!
Take care....TTYS

Megan
Can i cook this on high and if so how long?
Brandie @ The Country Cook
Hi Megan, you sure could. I think the flavors get better the longer it hangs out and slowly cooks. But if you absolutely have to do it faster, just cut the time in half. 🙂
