Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a skillet, cook the ground beef and chopped onion over medium heat until the beef is browned; drain excess fat.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked beef mixture with sliced potatoes, cream of mushroom soup, milk, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Pour the mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.

Baking

Bake for about 45 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let it cool slightly before serving.

Notes

This casserole pairs well with a simple green salad or crusty bread. Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives for an extra touch. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
