ingredients
- 1 1⁄2 lbs ground beef
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 dash Worcestershire sauce (optional)
- 4 medium russet potatoes, peeled and chopped (or 3 sweet potatoes)
- 1⁄3 cup milk, heated
- 1⁄2 cup shredded monterey jack cheese (optional)
- 1 (12 ounce) bag frozen carrots, thawed
- 1 (12 ounce) bag frozen peas, thawed
- salt, to taste
directions
- Preheat oven 350 degrees.
- First, make mashed potatoes: Place potatoes in medium saucepan and add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to med-low; cover loosely and boil gently for 15-20 minutes or until potatoes break apart easily. Drain well. Mash potatoes until no lumps remain. Add salt, pepper and milk; continue mashing until potatoes are smooth.
- While potatoes are boiling, brown ground beef over medium heat with onion, chili powder and Worcestershire sauce. Drain grease from meat and spread into a large baking dish. (I usually use two 2-quart dishes).
- Add a layer of carrots on top of beef, then add a layer of peas.
- Top with mashed potatoes, and sprinkle with cheese.
- Bake 20 minutes or until thoroughly heated and cheese is melted.
