Notes

  • Add jalapeños or hot sauce for a spicy kick.
  • Swap ground beef for turkey for a leaner option.
  • Mix in vegetables like peas, corn, or carrots to the mashed potatoes for added nutrition.
  • Experiment with different cheeses such as mozzarella, gouda, or pepper jack.
  • Make ahead and refrigerate overnight before baking.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge up to 4 days or freeze up to 2 months.
