Instructions
Mashed potatoes
- Peel potatoes and cut into chunks. Add to a pot with just enough water to barely cover.
- Cover slightly and bring to a boil over high (7-8) heat, then lower heat to medium (5-6). Cook until fork tender, ~6 minutes.
- Drain potatoes, then add back to pot. Add remaining mashed potato ingredients and mash until smooth.
Filling
- Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high (6-7).
- Add ground beef, onions, and celery, and cook until beef is no longer pink. Drain.
- Move beef to a 9”x13” baking dish. Stir in remaining filling ingredients.
Assembly
- Spread mashed potatoes evenly over filling, making sure to go all the way to the edges.
- Bake at 400°F for 25 minutes. Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
