If you’re looking for cold-weather comfort food, this is it. This recipe is easy to follow and comes together with just a few minutes of prep time. The most time-consuming part is slicing and dicing the vegetables, but once that’s done, it’s up to the oven to do the majority of the work.
The most important thing to remember for this recipe is seasoning, seasoning, seasoning. Each ingredient is bland on its own, and you’ll end up with a flavorless dish if you skip the salt and pepper. You might even want to switch things up and use garlic salt or herbs! Be sure to season the ground beef while it’s cooking, and then continue with plenty of seasoning on each layer so you end up with flavor throughout. Dolly Parton definitely has a hit with this recipe, but it will be up to the seasonings you choose to make it a chart-topper! Want to try more of Dolly Parton’s recipes?
