This was very good! I used the corn, but instead of asparagus, I used a peas and carrots combo. Also, I forgot the red pepper, but I think next time I'll be sure to use it. I also left out the curry (DH can't stand it). I layered it in a 1 1/2 qt. casserole dish and it turned out great. DH thought that it tasted a little like Thanksgiving. It really is surprising how tasty these few leftover ingredients can be. Thanks Rita for this new favorite for my Left-Overs cookbook!

Made for Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup tag game 2013 and I am so glad I picked this. This is great anytime and after Thanksgiving you can use leftover turkey (even if I know it says chicken). Anyway I used rotisserie chicken and I added onion and some garlic (always do) and fresh green beans for the asparagus (didn't have any). What is so nice you can use any vegetables that you have. I never used curry in my Shepards pie but I love that extra flavor. Definately going into my Favorites of 2013. Thank you for a wonderful recipe.

This was a great recipe! We left out the curry and I didn't have any red pepper or asparagus on hand, so I added green pepper instead. We'll definitely be making this one again.

We really enjoyed this casserole. I had some rotisserie chicken left over and used the corn and peas - didn't have asparagus. I substituted my leftover Colcannon (mashed potatoes and cabbage) on top and it was really good. Love the curry powder mixed with the soup. This is such a great recipe to use up leftover veggies and chicken - will definitely make this again! Made for ZWT -8- Great Britain/Ireland.

Followed the directions exactly, and it was absolutely disgusting! Do not add curry!
