Low Carb & Low Fat Shepherd's Pie
"Love Shepherd's pie - but watchin' those carbs and fat content? WHO ISN'T!? Well, this should suffice. Yes, I know it's not as rich as the Full Fat/Full Carb version, but IT IS really, really, delish AND you don't have to feel sooooooo guilty and starve yourself the next day to make up for having this."

This was very good for a middle-of-the-week casserole! I made some changes by using a chicken gravy mix instead of the Knorr mix specified (I couldn't find it in my store) and I used more frozen veggies (12 oz) and skipped the low carb mashed potatoes. Thanks for the very easy and filling recipe!
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
From my name you can tell I am C-R-A-Z-Y for British telly and films. I'm not British, I just wish I was :-(
My 4 passions are: British Film & Telly, Traveling, Cooking/new recipes and DRINKING!!!!
(I quit smoking recently otherwise that would have been my 5th passion)
I tend to go through extreme food and product "Phases" for example: for 2 months I'll be in an "India" phase where I ONLY eat food and use products from India . The month after that might be my "Dutch" phases, where EVERYTHING has to come from the Netherlands, etc.... Sometimes I even DRESS the part - Like when I was in my "German Phase" I actually bought a few dirndls (and WORE them - in public!!! In all honesty, they are cery cute dirndles, not the hard-core grandma style) - the German phase what my longest - it lasted and entire year and made me broke buying all my groceries and milk from Germany (from www.lila.de --just in case you're interested) The shipping cost MORE than the actual food sometimes. But I HAD to have my SonnenBasserman Schlemmergulasch! LOL! Another time, I would only by my groceries at any of the 4 Polish grocery stores in my city, that was my least favorite phase because Polish food isn't that tasty, and it SMELLS! . I think that was my shortest phase, lasted 2 weeks, but I still by this yummy apple & mint juice drink there and Paprika flavored chips/crisps. I feel so embarressed admitting that here - and hope I'm not the only one who does that. Gawd, I hope my mother does read this and see what I'm spending all my money on!
So, no matter what "phase" I might be in Friday night is ALWAYS "British Night" - no matter what!
