Shepherd's Pie

Recipe

2lbs+/- gr beef browned (can do this in advance)

1 small or 1/2 large bag mixed vegetables

4-6 potatoes- boiled or steamed, peeled or not and mashed (can do this in advance)

1 pkg brown gravy mix

shredded cheddar cheese

Spices:

    2 TBSP Worchestershire sauce

    1 TBSP garlic powder, split

    1 tsp Pepper

    1 TBSP Penzey's Fox Point Seasoning (preferred blend)

Preheat oven to 350

Layer warm/hot ground beef into casserole dish

Sprinkle gravy mix over and stir in along with worchestershire, 1/2 TBSP garlic powder, and 

Fox Point or other seasoning blend.

Heat frozen veggies for 5 mins in microwave, add pepper and other half of garlic powder

Layer onto ground beef in casserole dish

Heat mashed potatoes if cold; layer onto veggies in casserole dish

Sprinkle with 1/2 C cheddar cheese

Bake, uncovered for 40 mins. Add extra time if not bubbling hot. I used an oval casserole, but a large rectangle 9x13 would be thinner and 40 mins might be enough
