My husband said this was the bomb! I followed the recipe, except for also adding some crushed garlic, julian carrots, and one can of green beans w/out the juice to the meat mixture. I also added some smashed whole garlic to the potatoes wile they where boiling so I could mash it into them when done. Layered it just like she said and, topped it all off with shredded mozzarella cheese(it was all I had), and baked. I will make this again, thank you for this dish!

Great dish! My 8 year old loved it, and that's much to say.I just added an xtra, cream cheese in top of the beef (before the potatoes) in every layer..but still use the american cheese to finish the dish ..turned out great!

This is a good recipe, but being a cajun i always season meat before I cook it. But, if you drain it you may want to add some more. Add seasoning after draining. I do season before I cook some meats, but you may need to add more. Just a thought.

This was good. I didn't layer it. I just put the mixture in the pan and then smothered it with the mashed potatoes and topped with cheese. I also threw in some mushrooms and red bell pepper (didn't have a green one). Came out pretty good. Me and my roommate loved it.

this was very good, but I added a can of niblets corn to it, came out like a quicky version of what folks around here call shepherd's pie, I had some left over gravy left from pot roast the day before I heated it up and spooned a little over each serving, and with a crusty bread this was a satisfying meal....

Good, can't go wrong with meat and potatoes. Reminds me of Shepard's pie by the time I got done with it.

Anything that turns out as well as this did the first time making it deserves at least 4 stars. Very Good! I'd give it 4+ if I could. I didn't have bell pepper so I used a whole poblano and two roasted green chili peppers, diced. Also, next time I make the potatoes for layering, I would add additional butter, salt and pepper to give them a little richness and depth to go with the savory meat mixture. I've added this to my meal rotation and look forward to making it again.

I followed the recipe and my family enjoyed it. It was simple to make and we just headed it up for dinner after a long day at the office. I will add some spices to give it more flavor but overall its a good recipe.

Darn Good! I made this recipe last night and it was really tasty, great for lunch today too! I added some veggies but would strongly advise against skimping on the cheese.
