When we were kids and lived in England, Shepherd's Pie was my "mum's" favourite dish to make ... and we all loved it. Then she made it with ground beef and pork; this is updated, less fatty, and with lower calories. So easy to make it should be a once-a-week treat; even my picky 5-year-old professed to like it.

Really yummy, healthy and rather cheap to make. My husband and daughter love this recipe. It is a spin off of the traditional chicken and rice. I listed portions for serving of 8(food for 2 days), but you can cut down if needed.
