Beef and Mushrooms with Smashed Potatoes image

I was inspired to make this recipe after I couldn't stop thinking of a similar dish served in my elementary school cafeteria more than 50 years ago! I like that it's quick to make, and my husband and grandchildren love it. -Ronna Farley, Rockville, Maryland
