Preparation
Step 1
•In a large bowl, mash potatoes with sour cream. Add salt and pepper; set aside. In a large skillet, cook beef with onion and red pepper & mushrooms until meat is no longer pink and vegetables are tender; drain. Stir garlic salt into meat mixture. Stir in the soup (or gravy), vegetables, seasonings and milk.
• Spread meat mixture into a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Top with mashed potatoes; sprinkle with cheese.
• Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until heated through. For additional browning, place under broiler for a few minutes. Sprinkle with parsley if desired. Yield: 8-10 servings.
***Can use refrigerated ready mashed potatoes, frozen mashed potatoes or instant mashed potatoes -- all cooked according to pkg directions, instead of preparing your own.
