CROCK POT SLOPPY JOE CASSEROLE
Well goodness, that recipe title is a mouthful, huh? I really should have come up with a snazzier name. If y’all have a good idea for one, let me know. But really, the name doesn’t matter all that much. The taste does, right? 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!
WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
1 (32 oz.) package frozen shredded hash brown potatoes, thawed
1 can (10.75 oz.) condensed cheddar cheese soup, undiluted
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 lb. ground beef
1/2 small onion, finely chopped
1 (15.5 oz.) can sloppy joe sauce
shredded cheddar cheese, for topping (optional)
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 1/2 hours.

Can i cook this on high and if so how long?
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. 🙂
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

Do you thaw the frozen potatoes?
It says “thawed” in the recipe.
