Jessica, do you have any suggestions for making the gravy gluten-free?
Jessica Fisher
I use Bob’s Red Mill 1-to-1 gluten-free baking mix in place of flour. Add more liquid to get the desired thickness as the gf blend gets really thick.

I’ve been using this recipe for years! It’s so versatile and easy to customize.
Jessica Fisher
How awesome to know it’s been a longtime fave. Thanks!

My daughter is going to love this for lunch next fall! She really prefers hot lunch but I have to pack it each day. I plan to pack this in an easy lunch box freeze and then microwave before school and pack with microwave hot packs. Thank you so much!

Jessica, would it work to lay the meat balls with gravy on bottom of casserole or a loaf pan and top with the mashed potatoes. I need to take a meal to a family. I always struggle with how to put it together . I found a recipe that says to put meatballs in centre of a 3L casserole and place the vegebales and mashed potatoes in dollops around the outside and the gravey in one area. I think the gravey might soak into the vegetables and potatoes. I’ve cooked the meatballs this dish won’t get eaten until 9p.m and I will have to have it ready to go by 6p.m.

If it were me, I’d probably package it into two different pans with the gravy and meatballs together in one, separate from mashed potatoes and vegetables. I do think that the potatoes would soak up the gravy if packaged together for three hours.

This sounds so good right now. We are home from school today with a fresh 6 inches of snow on the ground. But what a difference a few years makes in prices! Good quality ground beef is running around $6.50 a pound around here these days and I just bought 5 pounds of potatoes on sale for a $1 — such a low price the store was limiting it to four packages per customer.

I think that meal looks delicious.

Hi there! I enjoy following your posts, your recipe ideas are great! I have a quick question about baking the mashed potatoes that you freeze, then thaw to bake. Do you cover these with aluminum foil when baking in the oven, or just bake them uncovered? Just wondering! Thanks.
Jessica
It depends on if they’ve thawed completely or not. I don’t want the tops to dry out before the inside is hot. Dabbing them with butter helps prevent that. If it’s fully thawed, go ahead and bake uncovered. Otherwise, do half and half.
Jade
Ah this sounds amazing! After all said and done and cooked, how much gravy does this recipe make? Thankyou! Making tonight anyway!
Jessica
It makes about 2 cups of gravy.

We saved this meal for last night as my husband is running in the Memphis marathon on Saturday and I figured it would be a great carb loading meal (we added wheat rolls to the mix). Unfortunately I didn’t have time to do my own meat balls (Kroger has great frozen turkey meatballs) but we finally got to try the gravy I made earlier in the week. Yum. The guys will probably never let me get away with store gravy again! 🙂 Everyone was happy after a night of martial arts practice.

@Carla, thanks for the great feedback!
