INGREDIENTS

  • Mash Topping

    • 🥔 4 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
    • ½ cup half-and-half
    • 🧈 2 tablespoons butter

  • Filling

    • 8 ounces ground elk meat
    • ¼ teaspoon Italian seasoning
    • 🧅 1 small onion, chopped
    • 1 parsnip, peeled and diced
    • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
    • 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables
    • 🧈 1 tablespoon butter, melted

STEPS

1

Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain; steam dry potatoes in pot for 1 to 2 minutes. Add half-and-half, 2 tablespoons butter, salt, and black pepper; mash. Set aside.

2

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

3

Cook elk meat, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper in a skillet over medium-high heat until crumbly and no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate or baking dish; return skillet to the stove over medium heat.

4

Add onion, parsnip, and garlic powder to the skillet; season with salt and black pepper. Cook until parsnip has softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in mixed vegetables; cook 5 minutes, then add to pie plate on top of elk. Top vegetable mixture with mashed potatoes; brush 1 tablespoon melted butter on top.

5

Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes begin to turn golden brown, about 30 minutes. Serve hot.
