Cheese Burger and Fries Casserole

We have had several weather related disasters in our area lately that have left people in need of assistance to move on with their life. I was recently ask to provide a casserole for a work team that were helping some folks clear an area of debris from a homeowners site. I didn't have a lot of notice to prepare a dish and I wanted to make something that would be hot and filling on a cool rainy day. This Cheese Burger and Fries Casserole was a perfect dish to take for the team and I brought the dish home empty. It is a delicious casserole that we will be enjoying for a long time to come and I was so happy to be able to help in some small way. I promised several on the team that I would share the recipe, so I am sharing it with all of you as well, enjoy!
