Beef - It's What's For Dinner


This got a "pretty good" from picky eater #1 (daddy), which is better than the "not bad" I got for yesterday's dinner. It's pretty much just a glorified shepherd's pie. It's nice to use up the leftover mashed potatoes that always seem to go bad before we finish them.
