Ingredients
  • cooking spray
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1/2 cup chopped celery
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed vegetable soup
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 3 cups mashed cooked potatoes
  • 1 cup shredded Colby longhorn cheese
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the desired temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit, or equivalently, 175 degrees Celsius.
2
Next, lightly coat a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray to prevent food from sticking.
3
In the meantime, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook ground beef, onion, and celery until the meat is nicely browned and crumbly.
4
Drain off any excess grease from the skillet, making sure to remove it completely.
5
Pour the cooked beef mixture into your prepared baking dish.
6
Mix in the condensed soup and thyme, ensuring a smooth blend.
7
Cover the top of your baking dish with an even layer of mashed potatoes.
8
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
9
Sprinkle shredded cheese over your dish and continue baking until the cheese has melted, taking an additional 5 minutes.
