Shepherd’s Pie

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium high heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned. Add onions and celery and cook, stirring often, until slightly softened. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Add green beans, diced tomatoes, and tomato sauce. Simmer for about 5 minutes. Add milk and simmer for several minutes more, stirring often. Season to taste.

In a medium casserole pan, spread 1-2 cups of mashed potatoes evenly in the bottom of the pan. Pour meat mixture over the top and spread out evenly. Top with remaining mashed potatoes and spread evenly over the top (like frosting a cake). Sprinkle cheese over the top.

Cook in a preheated 350ºF oven for about 40 minutes or until golden and bubbly.

Cool for several minutes before serving. Enjoy!
