This is a sneaky chef recipe as you can hide several kitchen sinks worth of vegetables without anyone being the wiser!
You can choose one or more from each category:
ground beef, lamb, turkey, chicken, cooked lentils
shredded carrot, onion, zucchinni
mushrooms
corn
peas
tomato sauce/paste/diced
garlic
1 egg for every pound of meat/ meat substitute
paprika
pepper
Mix until everything is well coated and press into the baking dish. I've used a pan, roaster, or crockpot with success. Just be aware that there will be a lot of grease in the crockpot unless you brown the meat first.
Top with mashed or shredded potatoes. Optional: drizzle with olive oil and more spices.
Bake uncovered at 350 for an hour or until bubbly. You can cover partway through if the potatoes get crispier than your liking.
If in the crockpot it'll need 6-10hrs on high or 3-5 hrs on low depending on whether you brown the meat first or not.
Freezes very well.
I don't really follow recipes anymore. I either decide what I want to make and look around to see how I can approximate it with what I have, or I look at what I have and decide from there what to make. This recipe has so many variations, pretty much everything is optional (which may make it a misnomer since authentic Shepherd's pie is the standard chopped lamb & potato casserole).
