Lefty Potato Pie

Ever have a lot of potatoes left over? Mashed, boiled, whatever … well, this is a great easy dish that just hits the spot.

1) Whatever leftover potatoes you have, they need to be mashed and made thick and creamy.
2) Sauté the onion. Add the carrot and ground beef. Add the vinegar and salt and pepper to the meat. You can add tomatoes too if you like, or any other veggie
3) Flavor the potatoes with a LOT of seasoning and herbs or it will come out bland. I don’t do bland.
4) Spread half the potato mix at least 1/2 inch thick along the bottom of the pan and smooth it out.
5) The ground beef should be spread on top.
6) Spread the rest of the potatoes on top of the beef. This can be tricky. Put a huge dollop of potatoes, then slowly spread with a spoon without picking up the meat.
7) After it’s all ready, pop it in the oven for 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees.
8) Top with the crushed croutons about 10 minutes before taking it out of the oven.
9) Take a slice out and enjoy with a vinaigrette salad (this is a must!). The sourness of the salad pairs great with this.

Enjoy!
