If you are searching for a delicious and quick dinner option, this Shepherd’s Pie is a must-try! I have been making this pie for years and it is a great recipe to use leftovers. This pie is incredibly easy to make. One of my family’s favorites! We pair this pie with a side salad for a simple dinner meal any time.
I love savory and hearty pie. This pie hits all the correct spots! It is delicious and a great quick dinner meal. For the topping, I use leftover mashed potatoes and topped it with shredded cheese (I use Mexican blend shredded cheese). Once this pie comes out of the oven, I am greeted with brown, melted cheese! A slice would never be enough, I have to grab another! This Shepherd’s Pie is delicious!
