- Combine Ingredients: Combine the mashed potatoes, sautéed vegetables, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in a large bowl. Stir in the milk or cream, salt, and pepper.
- Add Cheese and Bake: Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish. Top with the shredded cheese and the green onions. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
