This Shepherd’s Pie recipe is one of my favorite comfort foods filled with ground beef, mashed potatoes, and veggies. So yummy.

Homemade Shepherd’s Pie is the epitome of comfort food.

Buttery mashed potatoes, cheddar cheese, ground meat with tomato paste and worcester sauce. Need I say more?

And, a nice bonus is that the pie is loaded with veggies. I used a frozen package of corn, peas, carrots and string beans and it was perfect.

This is definitely a rich recipe, so a little goes a long way. We have some left in the fridge now for lunches tomorrow.

This is a simple shepherd’s pie recipe that you can whip up in no time. The only time consuming part is the mashed potatoes. Today, I peeled the potatoes and waited for them to boil while helping with homework. The meat filling is cooked all in one pot – your skillet, so super easy. We like that.

Tips for this Classic Shepherds Pie Recipe:

Try to use beef broth instead of chicken. I have made this recipe with both and the beef kicks up the flavor a touch.
I use the baby dutch gold potatoes. They are smaller than regular potatoes. I use 12 potatoes with the baby dutch and 8 with regular size gold potatoes.
I use grass fed beef – it just tastes better.

This is the best shepherds pie recipe I have found and my family loves it!

I hope your’s will too!!
