(this uses a shortcode which is kind of invisible in the divi view, don’t delete)

  • Directions

Boil potatoes in salted water, drain, then mash with milk/cream and butter. Season with salt and pepper.
Brown ground beef and salt with onion and garlic.
Add veggies, onion soup mix and milk or water, and spices. Heat to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer to reduce liquid (5-10 minutes).
Place mixture in a lightly greased casserole dish. Spread potatoes over top to cover entirely. Sprinkle with cheese and bake at 350º for 30 minutes.
