Regular flavor mashed potatoes can be used instead of garlic mashed potatoes.

My husband is a very picky eater, but he liked this! The green onions and bacon on top added plenty of flavor for us.

This is very good. My son found it in one of those cookbooks at the grocery store checkout, and he made it for the family. One of our daughters has celiac, so he left out the bread crumbs and it worked fine. It's not super flavorful, so if you want lots of punch in your ground beef you might want to add some seasoning. Overall, it's a good recipe for dinner.

I used ground turkey instead of beef, crackers instead of bread crumbs, added tsp. of poultry seasoning instead of sage. Couldn't find garlic twice baked, so used regular frozen mashed and added cloves of minced garlic to melted butter then to potatoes. My husband who doesn't eat red meat LOVED IT!! It also reheats well in the microwave!!

Quick and simple! Added layer of tomatoes between meat and potatoes, and used instant potatoes instead of refrigerated ones, everything turned out great! Husband loves it!

Made for dinner last night. Used ground venison and stove top stuffing mix in place of the bread crumbs and sage. Family loved it!
