Doesn’t that look delicious… I made a Shephard’s pie the other day and it was really good. Here is my recipe and how I threw it all together. 

Ingredients:

  • Extra lean ground beef
  • 2 minced onions
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • salt, pepper and italian seasoning to taste
  • 1 cup shredded light cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup tomato sauce(homemade)
  • 5 large potatoes - peeled and quartered
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • 2 cups frozen vegetable mix

Directions:

  • Boil potatoes and vegetables and let simmer until soft. While vegetables are cooking, cook beef in a fry pan with onions, garlic and seasoning. When meat is cooked, add tomato sauce and stir for 2 minutes. Then add 1/2 cup grated cheese and stir until melted. Spoon into a pie plate. 
  • Drain vegetables and layer over meat mixture. When potatoes are done, mash with 2 Tbsp milk and layer over vegetable mixture. Top with remaining cheddar and put in oven. Bake at 350 for about 20 - 30 minutes. 

Cut, serve and enjoy.  I ate this with some ketchup on the side and it was delicious.
