Discover the delicious and effortless Slow Cooker Cowboy Casserole, a perfect family meal.

  • Total Time: 250 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground hamburger
  • 2 cans beans (such as kidney or black beans), drained
  • 1 can corn, drained
  • 1 can diced tomatoes or tomato sauce
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Shredded cheese (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. Prep your ingredients: Start by browning the ground hamburger with the chopped onion and minced garlic in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked. Drain any excess fat for a healthier option.
  2. Combine in the slow cooker: In your slow cooker, combine the cooked hamburger mixture with the drained beans, corn, diced tomatoes, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper.
  3. Stir well: Give everything a good stir to ensure all ingredients are well mixed.
  4. Let it cook: Cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. The longer it cooks, the more the flavors meld together!
  5. Top it off: If desired, sprinkle shredded cheese on top shortly before serving for an added layer of richness.
  6. Serve hot: Dish out the casserole while it’s hot and enjoy the comfort it brings to your table!

Notes

For a healthier option, top with avocado slices or Greek yogurt instead of cheese.
