Grandma’s Shepherds Pie
Grandma’s Shepherds Pie
Shepherds Pie is a childhood staple for me. My grandma and mom made it all the time and it is the ultimate comfort food.
Traditional shepherds pie is made with lamb, however we always made it with ground beef or a shredded roast.
Let’s get started!

Notes
Skip the butter and add cheese instead! That is not a traditional way of making it but so good!
Make a pan of brown gravy to put on top once out of the oven.
