Shepard's Pie

I've never had Shepard's pie until I was well into my adulthood. Where has this been all my life?!
I LOVE it. Very filling and great for cold days.
Also, super simple!

Shepard's Pie

 

1 lb lean ground beef

1/2 onion, chopped

2 cups frozen carrots, corn and peas

2 cups mashed potatoes

1/2 cup sour cream

4 tablespoons olive oil

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Prepare mashed potatoes, add the sour cream and salt, mix and set aside (keep hot).

Add the ground beef and onions to a frying pan and saute until brown and cooked through. Then add the pepper and seasoned salt.

While the beef is browning, cook the frozen vegetables.

Pour the beef mixture into a 9x13 baking dish and top with the vegetables.

Next add a layer of cheese (leave a little for the top before you put it in the oven).

Heap the mashed potatoes on top, be sure to distribute evenly, smooth out.

Sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top and bake for 30 minutes.
