Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the pork, lamb, ground round, cheese, egg, basil, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and 1/4 cup of the bread crumbs. Using your hands, mix all ingredients until well incorporated. Use immediately or place in refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
  3. Using a scale, weigh meatballs into 1-ounce portions and place on a wire rack set in a sheet pan. Using your hands, shape the meatballs into rounds, roll in the bread crumbs and place the meatballs in individual, miniature muffin tin cups. Bake for 17 minutes or until cooked through.
Recipe Notes

I changed from 1 1/2 to 1 oz meatballs, because they were kind of big.

Optional - original recipe called for the meatballs to be rolled in 1/4 C bread crumbs, but I don't think it's necessary, so I removed that.  But you're welcome to add it back!

Instructions
  1. Place the peeled and quartered potatoes in medium sized pot. Cover with at least an inch of cold water. Add a teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook until tender (about 20 minutes).
  2. While the potatoes are cooking, melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large sauté pan on medium heat. Add the chopped onions and cook until tender, about 6 to 10 minutes.
  3. If you are including vegetables, add them according to their cooking time. Carrots should be cooked with the onions, because they take as long to cook as the onions do.
  4. If you are including peas or corn, add them toward the end of the cooking of the onions, or after the meat starts to cook, as they take very little cooking time.
  5. Add ground lamb to the pan with the onions and vegetables. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until no longer pink.
  6. Whisk broth with packages of gravy mix and Worcestershire sauce. Add to the meat and vegetable mix.
  7. Bring the broth to a simmer and reduce heat to low. Cook uncovered for 10 minutes, adding more beef broth if necessary to keep the meat from drying out.
  8. When the potatoes are done cooking (a fork can easily pierce), remove them from the pot and place them in a bowl with the remaining 4 Tbsp of butter. Mash with a fork or potato masher, and season with salt and pepper to taste. ***Kind of thick, might want to add a little milk. Could make morte taters, too.***
  9. Preheat oven to 400°F. Spread the beef, onions, and vegetables (if using) in an even layer in a large baking dish (8x13 casserole).
  10. Spread the mashed potatoes over the top of the lamb & vegetable mixture. Rough up the surface of the mashed potatoes with a fork so there are peaks that will get well browned. You can even use a fork to make creative designs in the mashed potatoes.
  11. Place in a 400°F oven and cook until browned and bubbling, about 30 minutes. If necessary, broil for the last few minutes to help the surface of the mashed potatoes brown.
