Ground Beef Shepherd's Pie created by ErikaNY

I grew up on this delicious comfort food - it was one of my favorite meals. Now I make it for my husband and myself! The nice thing about this recipe is you can fit it to your own likes. Instead of mixed vegatbles, you can use a can of corn, peas... or half and half! Mom always did peas and corn, I prefer mixed vegetables. Enjoy!

Saw Rachel Ray make this, but she made a rue by adding flour to the ground beef after it was cooked, then adding beef stock to create the gravy. I use frozen mixed vegetables for crisper more flavorful vegetables than canned. Gordon Ramsey made a shepherd's pie using lamb on one of his shows and added cheddar cheese to the mashed potatoes...it really adds good flavor to the overall dish.

Had this last night for supper. Pretty much made it as written except I had to make my gravy from beef broth and I used leftovery mashed potatos. It's a good comfort food. We will have this again. Thanks ;)

It's good but I put country gravy on the bottom of the pan and American cheese on top of the ground beef, then top with mashed potatos....mmmmmm!!
