Classic Shepherd’s Pie Recipe

A delicious, healthy, and classic Shepherd’s Pie recipe made with beef. It will become a staple in your house if you give it a try!  To be honest with you, there’s never been a day I’ve woken up totally excited to make a shepherd’s pie. First, you have to make the mashed potatoes (which requires boiling the potatoes for 30-35 minutes, then you get to the mashing), next you cook the filling, and finally, you pop your pie into the oven to bake for what feels like an eternity. (Okay, I’m being dramatic. Twenty minutes isn’t that bad). However, this doesn’t seem to stop me from thinking of shepherd’s pie when I have some leftover mashed potatoes in the fridge that need to be used up fast. In fact, suddenly the groundwork for this recipe becomes much more attractive. When you’ve already got your mashed potatoes made, cooking the savory filling is the only thing you need to do on the stove. Plus, if you use a cast iron pan to make the filling, you can top it with mashed potatoes directly in the pan and place it straight into the oven. You don’t even need to transfer your bottom layer to a baking dish. Now we’re talking! By all means, feel free to use freshly mashed potatoes to make a super legit shepherd’s pie. I personally found that this shortcut made prep time go a lot smoother, and I thought you might enjoy this recipe for the next time you’ve got leftover mashed potatoes kicking around. Traditionally, this is more of a “cottage pie” recipe, because traditional Irish shepherd’s pie is made with lamb, whereas cottage pie is made with beef. I have seen many variations of American-style shepherd’s pie recipes across the web, and many of them do use ground beef. Since this one does, too, we’ll call it a classic shepherd’s pie recipe instead of a traditional Irish version. This shepherd’s pie recipe doesn’t skip out on flavor or nutrition. The rich flavors of tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, chicken bone broth, and red wine compliment the beef perfectly (and will also go well with ground turkey or ground lamb if you’d like to substitute). Using chicken bone broth instead of regular stock or broth also adds a boost of collagen, which is a protein that helps promote healthy bones, joints, and skin. Each serving contains a small helping of veggies, such as onions, carrots, and sweet peas, to help keep the dish nutritious and the flavor well balanced.  Hearty, healthy, and simply delicious. Note: This shepherd’s pie recipe is easy to customize, so if you don’t have chicken bone broth on hand, feel free to use vegetable or beef broth. I have also received some questions about omitting the wine, which you can totally do, but the wine really makes the flavor pop. Hope you enjoy! If you love this recipe, don’t forget to keep it on hand for your holiday gatherings, St. Patrick’s Day festivities, or even those normal workday nights ;).
