I use fresh carrots instead of green beans. bake at 350 for 2 hours (approx.) or until tender. Also do not brown my hamburger first - just spread it on top of potatoes & carrots. It is fantastic.

This was sooooo good! Instead of green beans, I used a can of peas. I also used cream of chicken soup in place of the tomato soup. Will probably try cream of mushroom next time. I added some cheddar cheese to the top the last 15 mins of baking too.

I substituted a bag of morning star's meatless beef crumbles for the ground beef to make this recipe vegetarian/vegan. It tasted very good, but I will include salt in the recipe when I make it again. Baking for 15 minutes with the cover off was a bit much--instead I would do about 10 minutes.
