Ground Beef Shepherds Pie

This is an “oldie but goodie” on the food list. Old fashioned; yes. Really great meal in a casserole dish? Absolutely! I don’t know if this one is exactly like others available online, but this is how it’s made at our house.

Ingredients

1-2 lbs. ground beef
1 small onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 can (10 oz.) beef gravy
1 cup frozen mixed vegetables
1/4 tsp Worcestershire sauce
Salt and pepper
2 c mashed potatoes
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese – optional

Cooking Directions

1 – In a large skillet, cook the beef, onions and garlic; drain.
2 – Stir in gravy, vegetables, sauce, salt and pepper.
3 – Transfer to a greased baking dish.
4 – Spread potatoes over the top.
5 – Bake, uncovered, at 350 for 30 minutes.
Yield = 4 servings
Note 1 – We like to add shredded cheddar cheese to the top – last 5 to 10 minutes of baking time.
Note 2 – Substitute a can of peas and carrots (or other vegetables)
for the frozen mixed vegetables when you have none in your freezer.
