Description
Some people say this is just like Shepherd's pie. Can't remember where I got this recipe, figure from my grandmother because I've had this many years and many from her.
Servings depends on how much you eat. I was forced to add a number to servings.

1 large onion, diced.
1 1/2 lb. ground beef.
1 cup water.
1/2 cup flour.
2 tablespoons oil.
8 oz. grated Colby cheese.
3 cups mixed vegetables, cooked.
Mashed Potatoes.
Preparation
In small bowl, whisk the flour and water until it forms a paste. Set to side for now.
In a skillet, heat the oil. When oil is hot, add the onion and saute until softened. Now put it to side for now.
Put ground beef in a skillet and saute, breaking up large chunks with spatula, until browned. Drain grease. Stir in onion and mixed vegetables. Stir in the flour and water mixture. This will thicken the juices to form a sauce. When meat is fully cooked and the sauce has thickened, add salt and pepper to taste.
Preheat oven 350 degrees.
In a flat 10in x 10in x 2in casserole dish, (spray w/pam) Put the ground beef mixture in bottom. Then cover all with mashed potatoes. Put in oven uncovered for 30 minutes to get hot. Then cover all with grated cheese. Put back into oven until all cheese is melted.
Now you have your meat, taters and veggies all in one meal. :)
*Note: This is not the recipe to get creative with your mashed potatoes. A little milk, maybe some butter, mash with a potato masher.

Yes this is like my mother's Shepard Pie. Except I do not use mixed veggies I mix a can of cream corn and and regular corn. My daughter uses green beans because her son prefers them. Neither do I use the flour or water. The mixed veggies make me think more of a pot pie with no crust. But sounds good.
