While potatoes are cooking, brown the gound beef in a non stick pan, with the garlic. Once ground beef is browned add frozen vegetables and stock, bring to a simmer. Simmer for 3 min and add beef bullion and italian seasoning.
In a small bowl or cup mix the cold water and the cornstarch until smooth.
When bullion has dissolved add cornstarch mixture to pan and bring to boil, boil for 1 min and then turn off heat. leave pan on burner and allow to set for 5 min.

Now you can either simply leave the meat mixture in the pan, top with potatoes and serve
OR
Pour meat mixture in to 9 x 13 cake pan/ baking dish top with the potatoes and bake in 400 degree oven for 20 or until potatoes a golden brown. Let sit for approx 10 min and serve.
