Cottage Pie

Place Yukon Gold Potatoes (2) into a medium saucepot with Water (8 cups) and Salt (1 tsp). Bring to a boil over high heat.

Reduce heat to medium- low, and cover. Simmer until tender, about 20 minutes.

Using a colander drain the potatoes and place into a medium bowl. Add one ounce of the Butter (2 Tbsp), Garlic (1 clove), Salt (1/4 tsp) and Ground Black Pepper (1/4 tsp). Mix until well combined.

Meanwhile, remove the stem from the Cremini Mushroom (1 cup) and discard. Slice the mushrooms into half inch sliced pieces, and set aside.

In a medium sauté pan over medium heat add Extra-Virgin Olive Oil (1/2 Tbsp).

When hot, add the mushrooms and add Salt (1/4 tsp) and Ground Black Pepper (1/4 tsp). Cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove mushrooms from pan and set aside.

In a small bowl mix together half a cup of water and Beef Bouillon Cube (1).

Using the same sauté pan as the mushrooms, add Extra-Virgin Olive Oil (1/2 Tbsp).

When hot, add the 85/15 Lean Ground Beef (8 oz), Herbes de Provence (1/2 Tbsp), Ground Nutmeg (1/2 tsp), and Tomato Paste (1 tsp). Cook and stir until beef is lightly brown and crumbly, about 10 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).

Lightly grease a baking dish with Extra-Virgin Olive Oil (1 tsp).

In an oven-safe baking dish spread the beef mixture evenly amongst the bottom of the dish. Then, cover evenly with Green Peas (1/2 cup) and mushrooms. Spread only 2 cups of mashed potatoes over peas and mushrooms. Crumble with the remaining Butter (1 1/2 Tbsp).

Place in the oven and bake uncovered for 20 minutes until golden brown.

Serve and enjoy!
