Preheat Your Oven

• Set your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Cook the Ground Beef

• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it into smaller pieces as it cooks.
• Remove the beef using a slotted spoon and set aside.

3. Sauté the Aromatics

• In the same skillet, sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until the onion is translucent, about 3–4 minutes.

4. Add the Vegetables

• Stir in the diced potatoes, carrots, and celery.
• Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to begin softening the vegetables.

5. Combine Ingredients

• Add the corn kernels, cooked ground beef, diced tomatoes (with juice), and beef broth to the skillet.
• Season with salt, black pepper, thyme, and rosemary. Stir to combine.

6. Transfer to a Baking Dish

• Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and pour the skillet mixture into the dish. Spread it out evenly.

7. Bake Covered

• Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.

8. Add Cheddar Topping

• Remove the foil and sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
• Return the dish to the oven and bake uncovered for an additional 10–15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

9. Rest and Serve

• Let the bake rest for a few minutes after removing it from the oven.
• Serve warm and enjoy!
