Howdy! When you've had a hard day on the dusty trail, roping the steers on your trusty steed, you want a hearty meal that fills you up without turning you into a slow cowpoke. This is the pie for you: beans, corn, peppers, and sausage topped with creamy potatoes and baked the perfection. Yippee-Ki-Yay! Tip: Best way to remove ribs and seeds from a red bell pepper? Cut off top and bottom of pepper, then either carefully cut or tear out the seed portion.

Drain potatoes in a colander and return to pot.Add sour cream, half the potato cooking water, seasoning blend, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mash until combined and mostly smooth. For more chunks, mash less. If too thick, add additional potato cooking water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached.While potatoes cook, prepare ingredients. -
