Shepherd's Pie [0001073]

Ingredients:

1 pound ground beef or ground lamb
1 onion, chopped
2 carrots, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup frozen peas
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 cup gluten-free beef or vegetable broth
4 cups mashed potatoes (made with butter or dairy-free alternative)
Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a large skillet, brown the ground beef or lamb over medium-high heat until it's cooked through. Drain any excess fat.

Add the chopped onion and diced carrots to the skillet with the cooked meat. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the minced garlic and frozen peas. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Add the tomato paste and gluten-free beef or vegetable broth to the skillet. Stir to combine and simmer for about 5 minutes, allowing the mixture to thicken. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Transfer the meat and vegetable mixture to a baking dish.

Spread the mashed potatoes evenly over the top of the meat mixture.

Use a fork to create some texture on the surface of the mashed potatoes.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

Serve your comforting Gluten-Free Shepherd's Pie hot as a hearty and satisfying meal!
