In a large bowl, combine the cooked beef mixture with the cream of mushroom soup, milk, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Layer half of the sliced potatoes in a greased baking dish, followed by half of the beef mixture, then half of the cheese.
Repeat the layers with the remaining potatoes, beef mixture, and cheese.
