Instructions:

1. Layer the ingredients:

• In a 6-quart slow cooker, layer half of the potatoes, followed by half of the onions, half of the steak strips, and half of the cheese.
• Repeat layers with remaining potatoes, onions, steak, and 1 cup of cheese (reserve the last cup for topping).

1. Mix the sauce:

• In a bowl, whisk together cream of mushroom soup, beef broth, garlic powder, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, salt, and pepper.
• Pour evenly over the layered ingredients.

1. Cook:

• Cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours (or HIGH for 3-4 hours), until potatoes are tender and steak is cooked through.

1. Thicken (optional):

• If you prefer a thicker gravy, mix cornstarch and water into a slurry, stir into the casserole, and cook an additional 15-30 minutes.

1. Add final cheese & serve:

• Sprinkle remaining 1 cup cheddar cheese on top, cover until melted (about 5 mins).
• Garnish with fresh parsley or chives and serve hot!

Tips:

• For extra flavor: Sear the steak strips in a skillet before adding to the slow cooker.
• Add veggies: Toss in mushrooms, bell peppers, or carrots for more depth.
• Make it creamy: Stir in ½ cup sour cream at the end for a richer texture.
• Storage: Keeps well in the fridge for 3-4 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven.

This comforting, cheesy, and savory casserole is a crowd-pleaser—great for busy days or cozy family dinners! Enjoy! 😊🍖🧀
