Old Fashioned Shepherd’s Pie
At my house, Old Fashioned Shepherd’s Pie is the cozy dinner we pull out when the weather turns cold. Savory beef and tender carrots hide under a fluffy blanket of mashed potatoes that bakes up golden and crisp at the edges. Simple to make and big on comfort, it’s perfect for winter nights or St. Patrick’s Day and it always disappears fast.
