This is pretty easy recipe to make and it only takes about 20 min. Sheppard's Pie. My mom made this for me when I was growing up. It is one of my favorits. You will need:
1lb of hamburger meat
1 box of mash potatoes (make according to box directions)
1 package of shredded cheese.
Perheat over at 350 degrees.
Fry hamburger meat in frying pan. Add spice that you prefer ( I use garlic, seasioning salt, lemon pepper) Make mash potatoes. After hamburger meat is done drain and then put in a cake pan. Put cheese on top of the hamburger meat. Then the mash potatoes. Put in the oven for 5 to 10 mins. You want to give the cheese time to melt.
Side Note: My husband like it when I put corn in the middle with the cheese. I am not a big fan of it but to each there own. Good Luck!!! Hope you enjoy!!!
