Shepherd's Pie (aka. Cottage Pie)

I thought I’d get into the spirit of St. Patrick’s Day and share some of our favorite recipes this week! First up, Shepherds Pie. I love this stuff. It is comfort food at its finest and definitely delicious. I have made this recipe dozens of times, and it’s finally making its debut on the blog. Making this recipe with ground beef is traditionally called “Cottage Pie”, I believe. But since it’s mostly known as Shepherd’s Pie, that’s what I call it. If you’re not a fan of this amazing meal-in-one then try this recipe and it will convert you. Promise! It is packed with tons of flavor, and the mashed potatoes and cheese on top make it irresistible.



Don’t let the list of ingredients scare you. This meal comes together in hardly any time, and worth every bite!
