Ingredients:

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

3. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef slices and cook until browned, about 5-6 minutes. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

4. In the same skillet, add the onions and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and mushrooms, and sauté until the mushrooms are golden brown, about 5 minutes.

5. Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and cook for another 5 minutes until slightly tender.

6. Stir in the butter until melted, then sprinkle with flour and cook for 1-2 minutes.

7. Gradually pour in the milk while stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Cook until the sauce thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

8. Add the cooked pasta and beef to the skillet, stirring to combine everything evenly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

9. Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and top with grated cheese.

10. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

11. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.

Special Tips or Variations:

- You can add some herbs like thyme or rosemary for extra flavor.

- Feel free to swap the beef with ground turkey or chicken for a lighter version.

- Customize the cheese topping with your favorite cheese blend for a unique twist.
