directions

  • Brown beef- crumbly- drain.
  • Mix beef, soup, corn, vegetables and tomatoes in a 9x13" pan.
  • Make at least 2 cups of mashed potatoes (I recommend using at least twice that, but I like a nice thick coating), use the directions on the box.
  • Spread the potatoes over the beef/veggie mix in the 9x13 pan.
  • Coat the top with the shredded cheese (I use an 8oz bag of shredded cheese, but I like it nice-n-cheesy).
  • Bake at 350 for 25 minutes (or until cheese is hot and bubbly).

  1. Thanks for a great quick and easy recipe. I followed the recipe exactly except that I used Ground Turkey, no salt added canned items and used Low Fat Cheese. Also I used the envelopes of Cheese Flavored Instant Potatoes and two of them made about 4 cups of potatoes and that worked out about right to cover everything. I served it with Crusty Bread. It was very tasty and I appreciate the recipe. It was easy to make and inexpensive.
     
  2. This went together so easily. Simple and full of flavor. Lots and lots of veggies! I did use homemade mashed potatoes and only about 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheese. Very yummy. Thanks for sharing!
     
  3. I made this today only I added some pepper and garlic powder to the meat mixture. It was easy to put together and makes a great dish. Thanks
     
  4. I thought this was a very good meal and it freezes well too! One change I will make next time-I used the cheap instant mashed potatoes and you could tell-I will use a better quality potato next time. This will be a regular in our house.
     
  5. I was very impressed. Though I made just a few changes. I used stew beef and made a rue while frying the beef before I added the beef stock. Then I added the corn with the mashed potatoes, a sneaky way to get my kids to eat their veggies. The entire thing was deliscious. Thanks.

Didn't learn to cook until I was 29 - now I love it! I dye scarves for a hobby! Well, it's more of a call than a hobby, but you get the idea :) You can see them online at www.dyed4you.com
