Instructions

Brown the ground lamb or beef and onion in a large skillet on medium-high heat until no pink remains. Drain any fat, season with salt and pepper, and transfer to the bottom of a 4 or 6-quart slow cooker.
Place the frozen vegetables on top.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the broth, gravy mix, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, cornstarch, garlic powder, and thyme. Pour over the vegetables and stir well to combine.
Spoon the mashed potatoes over top and spread into an even layer. Do not stir.
Cover and cook on low for 7 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours.
Uncover and rest 15 to 30 minutes before serving.
