  2. Thinly slice 2 lbs potatoes and layer them evenly on the bottom of the prepared casserole dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  3. Add a layer of 2 cups chopped celery, seasoned with salt and pepper.
  4. Brown 1 lb ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat; drain excess fat. Spread the cooked hamburger evenly over the celery. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Add a layer of 1 medium onion, thinly sliced, seasoned with salt and pepper.
  6. Add a layer of 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced, seasoned with salt and pepper.
  7. Pour 28 oz (one 28 ounce can) of crushed tomatoes over the mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Bake for 120 minutes (2 hours), or until the potatoes are tender and the casserole is heated through and bubbly. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
