  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions, carrots, and garlic, sautéing until softened.
  3. Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until browned, then drain excess fat if necessary.
  4. Stir in the tomato sauce, oregano, salt, and pepper. Let it simmer for 5 minutes.
  5. In a baking dish, layer half of the sliced potatoes at the bottom.
  6. Spread the ground beef mixture evenly over the potatoes.
  7. Top with the remaining potato slices, overlapping slightly.
  8. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes.
  9. Remove the foil, sprinkle shredded cheese over the top, and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and golden.
  10. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
