I make this when I have leftover mashed potatoes. It also freezes well, so make a double recipe and have a meal ready for a crazy night! I also like to mix in 1/2 cup pureed pumpkin and/or summer squash into my potatoes.
Mashed Potatoes (You can use instant, too, or a mixture of both)
1 onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 pound lean ground beef
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup water
1 beef boullion cube
1-2 tablespoons ketchup or tomato sauce
1 can cream of mushroom soup
2 cups green beans, canned or fresh and steamed
shredded cheese
Brown ground beef with onions and bell pepper. Pour off excess fat, then stir in flour. Add ketchup, boullion, water, and cream soup. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes.
Spread the ground beef on the bottom of a 9x9 pan. Next, sprinkle green beans on top, slightly mashing into beef layer. Spoon on mashed potatoes and spread to cover the entire top of casserole.
Bake in preheated oven (375) for 20 minutes. Sprinkle on shredded cheese and bake a few more minutes until the cheese is melted.
