Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked. Drain excess fat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked beef, cream of mushroom soup, corn, and half of the shredded cheese. Mix well.
Pour the mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish and spread evenly.
Top with the remaining cheese and sprinkle the crushed Ritz crackers on top.
Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Let it sit for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

You can swap the ground beef for ground turkey or chicken.
Add a pinch of black pepper or garlic powder for extra flavor.
For a crispier topping, mix a tablespoon of melted butter with the crackers before sprinkling them on top.
