Comments

Another way to make this--more true to your request--is with leftovers. From leftover pot roast shred leftover beef, diced roasted potatoes, carrots and onions for the filling. Use gravy from the roast to moisten the meat mixture before topping with mashed potatoes. Bake as directed above.
