INGREDIENTS
| 1 | lb | Ground beef |
| 1 | pk | (16 oz.) frozen vegetables for stew, divided |
| 1 | cn | (10 1/4OZ.) beef gravy |
| 2 | c | Mashed potatoes (prepared with a small amount of milk) |
| 16 | Whole black peppercorns | |
| 1/4 | c | Ketchup |
INSTRUCTIONS
In a skillet, brown beef; drain. Remove 24 peas and one carrot chunk from the stew vegetables; set aside. Add the remaining vegetables to beef. Cook until vegetables are thawed. Add gravy; mix well. Pour into an ungreased 9 inch pie plate. Top with eight mashed potato snowmen, using 1 tablespoon of potatoes for each head and 3 tablespoons for each body. Bake, uncovered, at 350F for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, with a sharp knife, cut the reserved carrot into eight strips. Insert one strip into each snowman for a nose. Place three reserved peas on each for buttons. Add peppercorns for eyes. Drizzle ketchup between head and body to form a scarf. Yield: 6 - 8 servings. Editor's Note: If serving small children, remove the peppercorns.
