BEEF 'N' GRAVY ON POTATOES
Their is nothing really special about this recipe. Just good-plain comfort food. My eldest DS had two helpings, so that tells me something! This recipe is from Quick Cooking, I'm giving you their instructions on microwaving the potatoes, but I did mine on the stovetop. I also used brown gravy WITH onions, and cooked that directly in the same skillet as the ground beef, not separtely.

BEEF AND POTATOES WITH LEFTOVER GRAVY
Whenever I make a pot roast or brisket, I always have gravy leftover, and I LOATHE to throw away this flavorful liquid. Both my mother and my father-in-law make a great beef/potato dish, so, with theirs in mind, I came up with this. If you don't have enough gravy, add a little broth of your choice. Adjust meat/potato ratio based on your dietary preferences - I'll probably use less potato next time.
