next time your kids are whining what’s for dinner tell them its something.     Whats something they will ask, you will say dinner is.   They will be confused and say dinner is what?  you will say dinner is something.   It will be like an Abbott and Costello skit.    This will buy you some time while you throw together this dinner.   Frankly I have no idea what to call this, it’s just a throw together dish that turned out very well, okay not 4 star but good enough that the family ate it and even ate the left overs.

ground 1 lb of ground beef and drain.     Add in a can of manwhich sauce and a can of kidney beans (drained) and one small diced onion.  Stir together so its all mixed well.

pour into a greased pan and top it with about 4 cups of frozen hash browns.

bake in the oven for 40 minutes at 350 degrees.

Now the good part.  My family will eat anything as long as it has cheese. (note if you want this dairy free you can use daiya cheese but my gluten/dairy/soy free child wasn’t eating)

top with two-three cups of cheese (your choice but I used colby)  if it don’t look like enough add more you can never have too much cheese in my house.   we did paelo for a while and we did great as long as we added in cheese.  we learned you can’t live without it unless your allergic.

put back in the oven and let the cheese melt.  Serve
