Note

The original ingredient list was incomplete; ensure you have broccoli florets, green beans, spinach, gravy, and mashed potatoes ready for assembly.

For best results, bake at 350&# 194;°F (175ðC) for 20-25 minutes until the potato topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

This dish can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before baking.

For a vegan version, use vegetable-based gravy and ensure mashed potatoes are made with plant-based milk or broth.
