Creating Hobo Casserole with Ground Beef & Potatoes is simple if you follow these steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Cook the Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and brown the ground beef. Break it apart as it cooks, ensuring it’s completely browned. Drain any excess fat.
3. Layer the Ingredients: In a large casserole dish, start layering the sliced potatoes, chopped onion, and cooked ground beef. Add the green beans on top of the beef layer.
4. Mix the Soup: In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Spread this mixture over the green beans evenly.
5. Add Cheese and Bake: Top the casserole with shredded cheddar cheese. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for about 45-50 minutes. Remove the foil for the last 10 minutes to allow the cheese to brown.
