WHERE IS SHEPHERD\u2019S PIE FROM<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Shepherd\u2019s Pie originates from England. It\u00a0first came about late in the 1700s and early 1800s.<\/p>\n

It was developed as a way to use up leftovers, much like the casseroles of today.<\/p>\n

For purists, the type of meat in Shepherd\u2019s Pie is lamb or mutton.\u00a0 If made with ground beef it\u2019s called a Cottage Pie.<\/p>\n

That said, in the US the names are used interchangeably and we typically use ground beef. The Cottage Pie vs Shepherd\u2019s Pie question isn\u2019t really a question here.<\/p>\n

DO YOU PUT CHEESE ON SHEPHERD\u2019S PIE<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Yes, you put cheese on Shepherd\u2019s Pie! At least we do. This is a hot debate, but I\u2019m a big fan of bubbly melted cheese on top of the mashed potatoes.<\/p>\n

We like to use a Mexican or Fiesta blend on ours, but you could also use cheddar, provolone, or even munester.<\/p>\n

Ingredients :<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n

1 lb of ground beef<\/p>\n

2 cups of mixed veggies<\/p>\n

1 cup of chopped onion<\/p>\n

1 jar of beef gravy<\/p>\n

1 single package of instant mash potatoes<\/p>\n

1\/2 package of cream cheese and 1\/2 cup of shredded cheese<\/p>\n

Mama Grow\u2019s Gullah Seasoning<\/p>\n

How to make it<\/b><\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n

Preheat oven at 350 degrees.<\/p>\n

Cook beef and onions sprinkle with Gullah seasoning, drain the fat, add mixed veggies and beef gravy, mix together and set aside.<\/p>\n

Make instant potatoes as directed, add cream cheese and 1\/2 cup of shredded cheese and blend together.<\/p>\n

In a baking dish add ground beef mixture then top with mash potatoes and remaining shredded cheese.<\/p>\n

Bake uncovered for 20 minutes.<\/p>\n

This didn\u2019t take long at all and everyone is happy! Dinner is now served.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
