Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the onions for 5 minutes. Then, add garlic and cook for 1 minute.
Set onions and garlic aside and in the same skillet, add ground meat. Cook and stir for 6-8 minutes until thoroughly browned. Drain & rinse meat in a colander.
Add meat back in the skillet over medium-low heat. Stir in parsley, rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Then, stir in flour, and tomato paste. Stir until completely well incorporated
Stir in broth (or wine), peas, carrots, tomatoes and corn. Simmer for 5 minutes.
Evenly smooth meat mixture onto bottom of the skillet (or press into the bottom of a 9x9"inch baking dish). Sprinkle cheddar cheese over the top.
Potatoes: Heat broth, butter, and salt in a bowl in the microwave until hot. Stir in sour cream and potato flakes and mix with a fork. Let sit until liquid has been fully absorbed. (Note: the potatoes need to be thick to pipe perfect peaks.
Use a "star tip" on a piping bag (or a Ziploc bag with corner snipped). Fill bag and pipe potatoes into skillet or baking dish, covering the meat.
Sprinkle chopped onions & pepper on top.
Bake uncovered for 30 minutes.
Serve hot.
