Cowboy Casserole Crock Pot dinner is comforting and perfect for a busy night.
Looking forward to another easy crockpot dinner idea!
For an easy weeknight meal, try making this delicious Cowboy Casserole Crock Pot Dinner. It’s a simple meat-and-potatoes dish that’s easy to make in the slow cooker, so your family can come home with a warm, comforting meal with little effort.
The result is a hearty mix of ground beef and soft, cheesy potatoes, beans, and corn.
It’s not a fancy dinner by any means, but it’s full of slow-cooked goodness and comfort. My kids love this Cowboy Casserole Crockpot Dinner, and I too appreciate easy meals that can be made with pantry essentials.
Additionally, Black Label Ranch Beans come with a delicious sauce for your enjoyment.
Tips for making this Cowboy Casserole Crock Pot dish:
I used Lipton’s Onion Soup Mix to season the potatoes and they were delicious! If desired, you can also add chopped onions and seasonings instead. Many readers have also added a pack of ranch seasoning and love the taste. This slow cooker idea is easy to adapt to suit your family’s tastes. For example, I used Yukon gold potatoes, ranch-style beans, and diced tomatoes with jalapeños, but you can also use any variety of beans, vegetables, or non-spicy tomatoes you have on hand. If you like ground sausage or ground turkey, I think this Cowboy Casserole Crock Pot dish will work just as well.

Your hungry crew will love this crockpot meat and potatoes dinner.
The texture of the melting cheese was very delicious. Hmm! I find that easy meals made in the slow cooker on weeknights are such a lifesaver. This is definitely a winner! It reminds me of a packaged meal of ground beef and potato foil, except I put a lot of it in my CrockPot.
