Skip the drive-thru and satisfy your familys burger cravings at home with a hearty, stick-to-your-ribs entre that feels just right for cold weather. Our cheeseburger casserole is winters answer to summertimes backyard cookouts: the dish offers everything you love about a cheeseburger thats fresh off the grill, but you can quickly throw it all together in the comfort of your kitchen, no patty-flipping required. Plus, the casserole is more portable than a platter of burgers, so you can easily ferry it to the basketball team party or deliver it to the sleep-deprived new parents who live down the street. Ground round combined with all the usual suspects (onion, chiles, tomatoes, and worcestershire sauce) creates a satisfying base, but its the finishing layer of crispy tater tots, two types of cheeses, and thick-cut bacon bits that makes our cheeseburger casserole the ultimate crowd pleaser. Just dont count on having leftovers; this one is sure to disappear the second it hits the table.
