Honestly, who ever invented the casserole deserves some sort of food award prize. I love how easy they are and you can literally put anything you want in them. I love a good homemade burger, I just don't always have the time. This casserole is put together in 10 minutes flat has everything that an afternoon BBQ would have.

Try this out next time you have company coming. Choose your own toppings, add-ons and side dishes if you dare. I am willing to bet this dish alone will be more than enough for dinner or lunch. Which ever you prefer.

To make this, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 2 quart baking dish with nonstick spray. In a pan, cook ground beef with onion and garlic until browned, adding salt and pepper to taste.

Shared

Drain ground beef mixture, then mix in pickles.

Shared

Spread beef mixture evenly into prepared baking dish.

Shared

In a bowl or large measuring cup, mix together eggs, mayonnaise, and cream.

Shared

Pour over ground beef mixture.

Shared

Evenly sprinkle 1 cup of cheese on top.

Shared

Arrange frozen fries evenly in single layer on top of cheese. Season with salt and pepper.

Shared

Bake 35 minutes or until fries are cooked through and crispy (option broiling for a few minutes if you like your french fries extra crispy - watch carefully so it does not burn!).

Shared

Remove dish from the oven and top evenly with remaining cup of cheese. Place back in the oven until cheese is melted, then let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Shared

Serve up hot with desired toppings.
