This is the best Shepard's Pie I have had in a long time. I cut the prep time by using instant potatoes, and it still made it about a 55 minute Cook time, start to finish with prep included. My kids love it and it will become a new staple in the house. Thanks!

A very yummy weeknight meal! Definitely the perfect comfort food for my family. Will be making this again!

Good stuff, but it sure takes more than 20 minutes, if you add in the baking time. I used ground turkey and mushroom gravy -- yum. Thanks.

Very busy nanny/au pair, working for a very rich and snooty family, in a very large home, in a very snooty village. Just in case my employer comes here, please don't ask where I am from, or I'll be sacked like the last nanny was. ;-) I take care of 4 gorgeous, and darling kids. 3 girls and a boy. The boy is the youngest (and my favorite). They are great children, very, very active. (Hyper) I love to cook. I guess that's a given, why else would I be here. Part of my job is also to prepare meals for the family. The more they like my food, the longer I get to stay. (just a little joke) On my day off, I usually go out to the cinema or some dance clubs with the other au pairs in this town. That's about it I think.
