Mini Shepherd’s Pie Recipe

Shepherd’s Pie is one of my favorite meals to eat. So hearty, delicious and savory! This mini shepherd’s pie recipe is a convenient remix to the traditional version. With mini shepherd’s pies, I can make a big batch for dinner or to take to work for lunch the next day. I can then freeze the rest for a later date when I don’t feel like cooking.

For your meat filling, you can use lamb or beef.

You don’t even need a fresh batch of mashed potatoes. You can use leftovers!
