For an even richer flavor, consider using bone broth instead of regular chicken broth.
If you're short on time, frozen peas and corn work just as well.
Feel free to experiment with different vegetables in the filling, such as mushrooms or bell peppers.
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the beef mixture for a subtle kick.

    A perfect weeknight meal. I prepped the sweet potato topping and beef filling ahead of time and just assembled it before baking.

  • Rodrigo Schaden

    Easy to follow and delicious! I added some chopped mushrooms to the beef mixture for extra flavor.

  • Dorris Weimann

    I was skeptical about the cauliflower, but it adds such a lovely creaminess to the topping. My family loved it!

    This recipe is a game-changer! The sweet potato topping is so much healthier and tastier than regular mashed potatoes.
