My version of Shepherd's Pie for dinner tonight.
I was never one for Shepherd's Pie until I started making my own.
I loosely followed someone else's recipe.
The way I made it was with medium ground beef, boiled off and then browned with spices & chopped onions. Added approximately a cup of hickory barbecue sauce and allowed to simmer for 3-5 minutes before adding two cans of tomato soup and then let that all simmer while I mashed up the potatoes (potatoes were peeled and boiled).
When the meat sauce was set, I poured that into the glass casserole dish, topped with a layer of frozen peas...
@damselfly59 then mashed potatoes on top, sprinkled some old cheddar cheese on top of that.
Oh! Then I let that sit for 15 and then tossed it in the oven at 350° for half an hour
@Jax_Wild_4_Life ty! I have shied away for years but you inspire the jump.
TBH it was the 'old' cheddar that caught my eye😬
@damselfly59 yeah I grew up hating Shepherd's Pie... just loathed it. Was so gross to me. But when you play with some recipes you can come up with something super yummy!
How it turned out ...
(Made it just slightly too saucy, but I know for next time not to rinse the tomato soup cans into the meat/sauce mix...)
