I used a 12 ounces can of corn (couldn't find mexicorn). I used home made taco seasoning, no sodium. I omitted the salt. The package of mashed potatoes I used was not the best. I should have taken the brand Betty Crocker, and a flavor of butter and herbs. But other than that, it's perfect. Great recipe, easy to do. Thanks CoffeeB :) Made for PRMR

Excellent. I have nothing to compare this to as it is my first ever Shepherd's Pie. I absolutely loved it. With potatoes, beef and corn what is not to love. My DD will really like this. The only change I made was to use Rotel for the tomatoes to spice it up a little more for our taste. Thanks CB for a real keeper. Made for WTTM Tag Game :)
