I used peas in place of beans. I used taco seasoning in place of chili powder.. I did add a bit potato flakes to thicken, I did not add an egg yolk, I mashed the potatoes added chicken broth with garlic powder salt and pepper and parsley with a bit of paprika and made a second time with grd Turkey
Hmm too many ingredients for my taste. I call this a 3-ingredient meal all you really need are 3 main ingredients: potatoes, cream corn, & beef. Then I just add some milk & a tiny bit of butter to the potatoes. Salt or pepper can be added later to taste. I prefer my veggies fresh & on the side.
A frozen bag of mixed vegetables is a quick way to make this recipe. I use chicken or turkey instead of beef. Add a shot of worcestershire sauce (low sodium) for a savory taste.
Very, very tasty! I would definitely make this again, and my typically anti-health-food husband loved it. :) Very hearty and can satisfy the heartiest appetites for few calories
I WAS BORN AND RAISED THERE AND CORN WAS ALWAYS FED TO THE PIGS, I NEVER ATE CORN TILL I CAME TO THE US ALMOST 50 YEARS AGO.
IN ENGLAND WE TRIED TO LIIMIT STARCHES. NO BREAD ON THE TABLE, NO BREAD AND POTATOES SERVED TOGETHER. MY RULE NOW IS STILL THAT WAY POTATOES AND CORN TOGETHEJUST UPS THE CARB
not impressed with this version...very bland, not akin to the comfort food version i am used to...lower calories doesnt have to taste this lacklustre!!..shepherds pie is a great way to use up left over veggies, taters, meat, condiments, so experiment and get some flavors into it..it CAN be tasty!!
Looks real! Tastes OK but bland- would be better with an salty addition like onion soup mix. I left the skins on the potatoes and added a little milk and parmesan cheese to them, and I added garlic and used a frozen carrot/corn/green bean mix. Baked closer to 25 mins.
Made this yesterday, it was very good. I had some leftovers for lunch today and it's GREAT the second day! I did sub low fat chicken sausage for the beef since I had an open package, but everything meshed together so well, the flavors and texture are great! This will become a go-to recipe fore sure!
My DH and I were very pleased witht his recipe! I used lowfat milk in the potatoes-about 1/4 cup instead of the egg. I also cooked the filling until the broth was almost absorbed so it wouldn't be runny. Used black pepper instead of chili powder. It's a keeper!
So, this was my first Spark recipe. I wanted comfort food and this was perfect. I did make some changes though. I used ground turkey, one potato & 2 cups of cauliflower for the mash, I used no salt tomato paste, added Mrs. Dash to substitute the lack of salt. It turned out wonderful.
