I LOVE Shepherd's Pie, and I've been missing it since I've become vegetarian. This is a great veggie alternative! DH isn't too fond of cauliflower, otherwise I would have given this dish a collective 5 stars between the two of us. I think we were missing the "traditional potato" topping - next time I'll mash some up and add to top. Thanks for the recipe! UPDATE: My son has now voted this his favorite "lunch leftover". That's a HUGE compliment, trust me ;)
