This is a great way to use roast left overs as well - I have added the roast beef cut up, left over mashed potatoes and like to save the gravy(I freeze it) but this is the basic recipe using good ol ground beef.Submitted by: KOOLCHIK

A proper Vegetarian Shepherd's Pie that tastes as good as my mother-in-law's Old Fashioned Shepherd's Pie does.

My husband absolutely loves this recipe (and he's a meat eater) and I love that my son eats all his veggies when I serve him this for dinner. I make this 3-4 times a month throughout winter-time. Submitted by: CAMILLE-LEON

My husband and 2 boys love the traditional Shepherd's pie with gravy, mashed potatoes and lots of cheese. As I made this, I thought "none of my boys are going to eat this." Boy, was I wrong! Everyone cleaned their plates, and my husband even declared this recipe to be a "keeper!"Submitted by: DARBOYMOM

I went through a few weeks wherein I refused to shop for groceries (money was really tight), and towards the end, I had to get pretty creative with our frozen and canned foods.

I love fusion foods, and I had never tried a british/mexican mix before, so I thought I'd give my take on the idea of a shepherd's pie, but in a more mexican light. The "gravy" certainly isn't gravy at all, but it's a surprisingly tasty dish!

The cheese and egg can be easily omitted or substituted (mmm, daiya!) if you want this to be a vegan recipe! Enjoy!Submitted by: THEMANDIKAT

Sheperd's Pie using ground turkey and whipped cauliflower instead of potatoes.Submitted by: TIGGERDRH

Many cooks use ground beef in shepherd pie. You should actually use lamb; when cooked with beef it would be called cottage pie. Some who use lamb will use ground lamb. When I do it, I prefer to slow roast a trimmed, boneless leg until it is fall apart tender then shred it. I have also cut up the leg and stewed it with the veggies.

In this recipe, I have left out all but the salt and pepper. If you want to add other spices, go for it. That is up to your taste. Besides, it is a dish from the British Isles and so can be served quite plain.Submitted by: TIMOTHYNOHE

This is definitely a BUDGET FRIENDLY recipe. It feeds 4 people for about $2 per diner! Not bad eh?

I like to only eat meat a couple of days per week. I had already planned on two meals with meat as the centerpiece, but also really wanted to make a nice, warm, comforting casserole for dinner!

This recipe uses Texturized Vegetable Protein, which you can find in bulk at any health food store and even Hannaford's! I use it instead of pre-fab meatless grounds because it's MUCH cheaper and has waaaaay less sodium.Submitted by: BTVMADS
