Ingredients
Peel and cut potatoes into chunks and boil in salted water about 20 minutes until tender (or use pre-baked potatoes)
Sauté chopped onion, celery and carrots in a skillet over medium-high heat about 10 minutes with 2 tbs of olive oil or coconut oil
Add the ground beef (or turkey) to the sautéed veggies, along with the meat seasonings and garlic; pan fry until beef is cooked through
Next add the tomato paste and stir in the beef broth
Simmer together about 10 minutes - keep mixture moist by adding a little more broth if necessary
Spoon meat mixture into in an oven-safe glass pie dish or casserole dish
In a medium saucepan or mixing bowl, mash cooked potatoes and add about 1/4 cup of almond or coconut milk – you want the potatoes creamy but still stiff so they hold their shape
Optional: add 1 tbs of butter to the mashed potatoes (or a little more coconut or almond milk if needed)
Stir in potato seasonings, plus some salt and pepper to taste
Gently spread mashed potatoes over the beef filling
Bake at 350-degrees F for about 30 minutes
Optional: after baking, place dish under oven broiler for 2-3 minutes to add a little brown crust (watch closely to avoid burning)
Serve steaming hot and enjoy!
