1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2

Put the potatoes in a large pot and cover them with salted water; bring to a boil. Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain.
3

Mash the potatoes. Add ½ cup Cheddar cheese, milk, green onion, and butter; stir until fully combined.
4

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, flour, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper; cook and stir until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the French onion soup and water.
5

Place the frozen peas in a small, microwave-safe bowl; microwave for 1 minute. Stir the peas into the beef mixture.
6

Transfer the beef mixture to a glass casserole dish; spread the potatoes over the top with a rubber spatula. Top with the remaining ½ cup Cheddar cheese; sprinkle with black pepper.

Bake in the preheated oven until hot and bubbly, about 20 minutes.
