Remove the foil and arrange the American cheese slices evenly over the top of the casserole. Return the casserole to the oven and let it stand until the cheese is melted and slightly bubbly (15-20 minutes). Let cool slightly before serving.

For a richer flavor, try using a combination of ground beef and ground pork.
Feel free to substitute other types of cheese, such as cheddar or mozzarella, for the American cheese.
Add a can of drained and rinsed diced tomatoes for more tomato flavor.
Spice things up with a pinch of red pepper flakes in the ground beef mixture.
