Picture this: It's Wednesday night, your energy is at level zero, and the thought of whipping up something "gourmet" makes you want to crawl under a blanket and order takeout. But fear not! This cheeseburger casserole is here to save the day (and your appetite). It’s the lazy chef's dream: all the flavors of a cheeseburger, minus the grill, the fuss, and the judgmental looks from your neighbors. Plus, it’s baked in one pan—because who has time for dishes? 🧼
Let’s be real—sometimes, you just want to throw a bunch of delicious stuff together and call it dinner. If that’s your vibe, welcome to the **Not-So-Classic Cheeseburger Casserole**. It's a no-fuss, all-flavor, comfort-food hug in a dish. So grab your spatula, throw on your comfiest PJs, and let’s get cooking...or, you know, assembling. 🍳

**Ingredients:**
- 1 lb ground beef (because who has time for fancy meats?)
- 1 onion, chopped (cue the tears, sorry)
- 2 cups pasta (any shape, we're not picky here)
- 1 can of diced tomatoes (no, you don't have to dice them yourself)
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (aka the best part)
- 1/2 cup pickles, chopped (optional, but let’s be real—go for it)
- Salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of sarcasm
**Instructions:**
1. **Preheat your oven** to 350°F (or as I like to call it, the "waiting" temperature).
2. **Cook the pasta** according to the package, which we all know you're reading for the first time. Drain and set aside.
3. In a large pan, **brown the ground beef** with the chopped onion. Pretend you’re a chef on TV, but only if no one’s watching.
4. **Add the canned tomatoes** to the beef and let it simmer for a bit. You deserve a break, so grab a drink! 🍹
5. **Mix the pasta** into the beef-tomato concoction. Feel free to get a little messy; it's part of the charm.
6. **Top it all** with that glorious shredded cheddar cheese. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and looks irresistible.
7. Serve with a side of pickles or just eat straight out of the pan. Who needs dishes anyway? 🥄
**Enjoy your lazy masterpiece!** This dish pairs perfectly with Netflix and a cozy blanket. Remember, calories don’t count when you’re laughing! 😂
