Beef Shepherd's Pie

I made this recipe last October and it was so delicious, that it's been on my mind ever since. I am making it again tonight and that is my cue to post the recipe on my blog! I found the recipe here. I double this recipe and today I am trying it out in the crockpot - I will post how that goes.

Beef Shepherd's Pie

INGREDIENTS:

Serves 5-6

4 cups mashed potatoes

garlic salt

1lb ground beef

1/3 cup onion, chopped

2 garlic cloves, minced

3 Tablespoons flour

1 Tablespoon tomato paste

1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 Tablespoon soy sauce

1 can (14.5oz) chicken broth

2 cups frozen vegetable medley

HOW TO PREPARE:

1. Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. Brown ground beef, onions and garlic in a large

skillet on med-high heat. When meat is completely cooked, stir in flour and cook for

1-2 minutes.

2. Stir in tomato paste, worcestershire sauce, soy sauce and chicken broth. Simmer

for 5-6 minutes, or until sauce is thick. Turn the heat off and stir in frozen

vegetables and salt and pepper, to taste.

3. Pour beef mixture into a large, oven-proof casserole dish. Top with mashed

potatoes and smooth with a spatula. Sprinkle garlic salt on top of mashed potatoes.

4. Place casserole dish on a large sheet pan (in case the sauce overflows) and bake for

20-30 minutes, or until top is golden brown. Ladle and serve!
