Thursday Dinner: Shepherd's Pie


Brown 1lb of ground beef and 1lb of ground lamb with some onion (drain)
Season: I added some garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper and parsley
Add in about 1 cup of red wine (I used Syrah to give it a mushroom flavor)
Cook the wine out
Skin and boil about 6 russet potatoes
Mash with salt, 1 stick of butter (cut into tablespoons for faster melting) and milk
Grate some parmesan cheese in
Spoon beef/lamb into casserole, add in corn, carrots and peas and toss well (I used frozen vegetables though I usually use fresh corn as its more flavorful, make sure frozen vegetables are thawed first)
Cover with mashed potatoes and bake for 30 minutes
*I didn't add any gravy as I was trying to make it healthier but I think it needed at least a little.  It was good but a little dry.
