Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Cook the Beef

    In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat until fully cooked. Drain any excess fat.

  2. 2

    Add Vegetables

    Add the diced carrots and peas to the skillet with the beef. Cook for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  3. 3

    Mix in Gravy

    Stir in the gravy, ensuring the meat and vegetables are well coated. Allow to simmer for 2-3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Pie

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). In a baking dish, spread the beef and vegetable mixture evenly at the bottom. Top with a layer of mashed potatoes, spreading them evenly across the surface. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from the oven, let it cool slightly, and serve warm with a side of coleslaw.
