Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F
  2. Place the sweet potatoes in a large saucepan with just enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are tender. About 10 minutes.
  3. Drain and mash, then season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning blend.
  4. Heat oil in a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Sauté the onions for 3-4 minutes, then stir in the garlic and cook for a minute or so.
  5. Add the ground meat and cook, crumbling with a wooden spoon, until the meat is cooked through.
  6. Stir in the tomato paste, oregano, paprika, salt and pepper, and broth. Simmer for a few minutes until the liquid is reduced, then stir in the peas.
  7. Spread the meat mixture into a 2-quart baking dish. Add mashed potatoes on top and spread it evenly all the way to the sides.
  8. Bake until the potatoes are just starting to brown, about 25-30 minutes. Rest, then serve and enjoy!
