Quick and Easy Shepherd’s Pie

Shepherd’s Pie, otherwise known as Cottage Pie is a great weeknight dinner recipe. It originated either in Scotland or England. Shepherd’s pie is the quintessential comfort food and then some. I love to make it for dinner on cold and rainy nights. It warms me all the way through.

This dish is perfect to make if you have leftover mashed potatoes or roast. When I make shepherd’s pie I usually make more than one if I can, simply because it is so freezer friendly. I am all over any kind of meal that can be frozen for those days when I just don’t have the time or energy to make dinner. Frozen shepherd’s pie is also great to have on hand for the friend who may need a helping hand or is under the weather.

The recipe is simple to make and my kids love when it is on our menu plan. Veggies, mashed potatoes and meat all in one dish, what more can you ask for?
