How to Make Lazy Cottage Pie
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 lb ground beef (or lamb) and 1 medium onion, chopped. Brown the meat, breaking it up with a spoon, for 8-10 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a medium-sized casserole dish.
- Transfer the cooked meat mixture to the prepared casserole dish.
- Spread 1 (14.5 ounce) can of green beans (or peas and carrots) evenly over the meat.
- Pour 1 (10.75 ounce) can of condensed cream of mushroom soup (or your favorite soup) over the green beans. Spread evenly with a spatula.
- Spread 2 cups of mashed potatoes (homemade or instant) over the soup, sealing the edges.
- Sprinkle with 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional) and a pinch of paprika (optional, especially if omitting cheese).
- Bake, uncovered, for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
