Yummy Shepherd's Pie

Years ago I made French Onion soup from scratch.

 Inside the box was a recipe for Shepherd's Pie.

It has become a family favourite.

 

Lipton Shepherd's Pie

 

5 medium potatoes peeled

1/4-1/2 cup milk, warmed

1 tbsp. butter

1 lb. lean ground beef

2 cloves garlic

1 pouch Lipton Onion Soup

3 cups frozen vegetables

1 1/4 cups milk

1 tsp dried oregano

1/2 tsp pepper

1 cup grated cheddar cheese (I use marble cheese)

 

1. Cook potatoes in boiling salted water, drain. Mash potatoes, add warmed milk and butter. Season with salt and pepper.

2. In a large skillet brown ground beef and garlic. Add Lipton Onion Soup, frozen vegetables, remaining milk, oregano and pepper. Heat to a boil.

3. Reduce heat, simmer for 5 min to reduce liquid. Place mixture in a lightly greased casserole dish. I use a 9 x 13 glass dish. Spread potatoes over top to cover entirely.

4. Sprinkle with cheese and bake at 325-350 degrees. Garnish with parsley if desired.

 

The only changes I make is I add some extra spices to the hamburger, basil, Montreal steak spice and some Italian seasoning.  I don't drain the liquid after the hamburger and veggies are simmering.

 

Great dish to freeze for later!

I made this dish for someone so I bought a tin foil pan.

 

It's a very easy dish to make and tastes delicious. I've had many compliments on this so I thought I'd share. Perfect meal for a dull rainy day.
