1 lb Lean Ground Beef 1/2 c Baby Peas, Canned Or Frozen
1 md Onion, Chopped 3 c Mashed Potatoes

Preheat the oven to 350oF. In an all-iron skillet, heat the olive oil
and saute the beef, onion, carrots, and thyme together. Drain off
excess fat. Add peas to mixture and stir. Spread the potatoes on top.
Dot with butter or brush with oil. Bake until the crests of the
potatoes are lightly browned, about 20-30 minutes. NOTE: The skillet
should have an iron handle so it can go right in the oven. If not,
transfer meat mixture to baking dish before adding potato layer.
