Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking dish.

Place beef and onion in a large skillet over medium heat. Season with rosemary and basil. Cook and stir until beef is evenly browned; drain grease. Mix in mixed vegetables, diced tomatoes, and tomato sauce. Cook and stir until vegetables are heated through. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
3
Place potatoes in a large pot with enough water to cover; bring to a boil. Cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and drain.

Add butter, Romano cheese, milk, garlic, salt, and oregano to potatoes in the pot. Mash together with a potato masher until smooth. Spread mashed potatoes over beef and vegetable mixture in the baking dish.
