11 steps

Ingredients

  • 1/2 pounds Bacon, Diced
  • 2 pounds Ground Pork
  • 2 whole Onions, Chopped
  • 2 cups Kale, Chopped
  • 1 cup Celery, Chopped
  • 2 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • 1 pinch Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1 pinch Pepper
  • 1 pinch Ground Nutmeg
  • 2 Tablespoons Dried Parsley
  • 2 cups Mashed Potatoes
  • 1 cup Cheddar Cheese, Grated

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  2. 2
    In a cast iron skillet, brown the diced bacon and pork.
  3. 3
    (I just bought a pack of sliced bacon and cut the bacon with some kitchen shears over the pan so the dices fell directly into the pan.
  4. 4
    Then all you have to do is discard the now-cut-up package the bacon was in.)
  5. 5
    Once the meat is browned, set aside.
  6. 6
    To the skillet, add onions, kale, celery, garlic, cinnamon, salt, pepper and nutmeg.
  7. 7
    Let sit for 4-5 minutes then add the meat back into the pan with a splash of water.
  8. 8
    Mix the ingredients together and add the parsley, mixing once more.
  9. 9
    Turn the heat off and spread your mashed potatoes over the mixture.
  10. 10
    Sprinkle this with the cheddar cheese and bake 15-20 minutes until golden.
