Directions
Preparing the Filling
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the Ground Beef: In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until it is no longer pink, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
Add Onions and Garlic: Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
Mix in Vegetables and Sauce: Stir in the frozen peas and carrots mix, condensed cheddar cheese soup, ketchup, mustard, salt, and pepper. Cook until everything is well combined and heated through.
