Ingredients

• 1 ½ pounds lean ground beef
• 2 15-ounce cans seasoned baked beans
• 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Instructions

Heat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Put the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook for about 6 to 8 minutes, breaking it apart as it browns.
Once the beef is completely cooked, drain away any extra grease.
Pour the baked beans into the skillet and stir until they are evenly mixed with the beef.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out into an even layer.
Scatter the shredded cheddar over the top.
Bake uncovered for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the casserole is hot and the cheese is melted and bubbling around the edges.
Let it rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
