Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F, then slightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with olive oil, and set it aside. Place a large skillet on a stove over medium heat, then add the ground beef and chopped onion, and cook them for about 7 to 10 minutes or until browned. Drain off the excess oil, then season the meat with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper, and give them a good mix to combine.

Step 2

Spread half of the meat mixture into the prepared baking dish, then place the thinly sliced tomatoes in a single layer, and sprinkle half of the cheese on top. Repeat the layers with the remaining ingredients except the cheese, then place the thinly sliced potatoes on top in a single layer, and sprinkle the remaining cup of cheese. In a small bowl, add the condensed cream of mushroom soup and milk, then whisk them until smooth and combined, and pour it evenly over the entire dish.

Step 3

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil, then place it in the preheated oven, and let it bake for about 1 hour. After an hour, remove the foil, then let it bake for an additional 20 to 30 minutes or until the cheese is golden and bubbly, and check if the potatoes are fork tender. Once done baking, let it rest for about 10 minutes, then garnish with parsley before serving, and enjoy!
