I LOVE a good casserole. I make them all the time, but all those ingredients added together in one dish can be a difficult photography subject. 😉 That being said, don’t judge this based on the pictures. This French Onion Beef Casserole will win hearts all around the dinner table! Filled with beef, French onion dip and noodles- it is so delicious, full of flavor and so comforting.
It is amazing, my friends! I can’t think of any other word except that it is amazing. 🙂
I am so grateful my kids typically love casseroles too. When noodles are involved at any meal they don’t ask questions. They just eat. ha! I like to serve this with a side of broccoli and it makes a complete meal for my family!

This was just so delicious! I used Lipton-Onion-soup dip, and after reading some reviews, was worried about dryness, So i drizzled a half cup Of Melted “move over butter” spRead over the casserole before putting it in the oven. Could not shovel it in faSt enough. I Think i’ll double the onion topping next time, because those crispy bits really compliment the texture of this dish. Definitely a keeper!
Ruffles has one. You can even buy it a dollarama
My son is allergic to mushrooms. What soup would be a good substitute?
Cindy you could use cream of chicken or cream of celery 🙂
Very good and easy. Definitely a comfort food. I made it pretty much according to the recipe but two small changes. Instead of the store-bought french onion dip, I made my own with sour cream and french onion mix the day before. The sour cream was 16 oz. I used all of it. I also added about 1/4 to 1/3 cup of half & half. My fear is that it would be dry, which I didn’t want. With the half & half and a little extra dip, it was just the right amount of “not dry”. When I served it, I found that sprinkling a few extra fried onions on top ensured i got a little crunch in each bite. I made it with the intention of left overs for dinner this coming week. I think I will add just a tad of milk when i heat so that is doesn’t dry out. Thanks again for the yummy recipe!
This is a new staple in my family’s hOme! We all love it!
I Make my own french onion dip with sour cream and lipton onion soup mix. I double the Sauce portion (my fam likes very saucy CASSEROLEs), And add onions into the ground beef.
I froze a portion and reheated it tonight. Straig from the freezer, covered in foil, in the oven at 375° for 1 hour and 20 minutes. Removed the foil and crisped the Fried onion TOPPING for five minutes.
One of my go-to favorites. We love it!
added about 1TBSP of worchestershire sauce. It was a big hit!
This is a Staple for our family. And it makes tHe best leftovers! Sometimes i make it a day early just so we can eat it as leftovers.
I made this today, cooked the ground beef with onions, added about a half a cup of milk to the dip jar to get it all, added a hand full of grated cheese before adding the fried onions. This is so awesome! The entire pan was gone the same day! Kids loved it & very easy to make with ingreds on hand. Will definitely make it again!! Thanks for a great recipe!
made this twice; the second time, i subbed the beef for 16 oz mushrooms sauteed. just as good and meatless.

Only used 1 can of cream of mushroom soup, dried lipton onion soup 1/2 c chopped onion while cooking the hamburger. Turned out great and then added chopped green pepper as was serving.
This was delish. Used only 1 can of cream of mushroom soup. Also added chopped onions as the hamburger cooked. Instead of an already made dip, used dry lipton onion soup and about a tablespoon of sour cream since that was all I had. After baking put fresh chopped green onions on top.
Yummm. This was so good. My husband definitely will make again
