This Simple Crock Pot Recipe Makes an Easy & Cheesy French Fry Meal

— March 7, 2015 — Lifestyle
It's an old trick to use rice to beef up something like a soup and have it stretch further as a meal, but who ever thought that a french fry meal could do the same?

This Crock Pot French Fry Casserole recipe from the Tammilee Tips blog is a simple one that involves only ground beef, onion, beans, cheese, a can of tomato soup and a bag of frozen fries. As well as having hardly any ingredients, there's virtually no preparation required, since everything does into a slow cooker at once. The fries won't be as crisp as when they're fried, but after a few hours in a crock pot, the cooked potatoes become soft. This super comforting meal is ideal for the winter, or any other instance you have the time to prepare a quick and easy meal option ahead.
