Five Layer Ground Beef Dinner -Weekend Recipe

Here is a great recipe to use with what is in your pantry.  If you don't have carrots use celery.  If you don't have potatoes add uncooked rice and add an extra can of water in the bottom layer.  If you don't have ground beef, use cooked chicken or ground turkey.  And if you want it vegetarian, use impossible meat or Beyond Meat instead. And if there is no tomato soup in your pantry, substitute cream of mushroom instead.

Layer in a deep casserole in order above, starting with potatoes on the bottom.  Season each layer with a sprinkle Do-It All Herbal Seasoning.  Combine tomato soup with water and pour over top and bake at 350 degrees for 1 ½ to 2 hours or until potatoes are tender.  Water may need to be added to keep dinner moist while cooking.  Serves 8
