Shepherd's Pie

This is my favorite shepherd's pie recipe that I have found thus far. The fried onions are a nice twist.

Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 lbs. ground beef
- 2 c. French's french fried onions
- 1 can tomato soup
- 1/2 c. water
- 2 t. Italian seasoning
- 1/2 t. each salt and pepper
- 1 package (10 oz) frozen mixed vegetables, thawed (I don't use the whole bag)
- 3 cups hot mashed potatoes

Directions:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cook meat in large ovenproof skillet until browned; drain.
(I use a normal skillet and layer the ingredients in a square casserole dish for the oven)
- Stir in 1 c. fried onions, soup, water, seasoning, salt and pepper.
- Spoon veggies over beef mixture. Top with mashed potatoes.
- Bake 20 min. or until hot. Sprikle with remaining 1 c. onions. Bake 2 min. or until golden.
