Directions
Chicken Shepherd’s Pie, Traditionally shepherd pie is made from lamb (hence shepherd) but since I don’t eat red meat, I’m making it with chicken You can use lamb if you wish Vegetarian can replace the meat with variety of beans or TVP You may use dried herbs if you don’t have fresh herbs Mushroom used comes in a can and is sliced and pre-made in butter sauce, Comfort food! I also made a few adjustments – increased the veggies and almost doubled the mushrooms (love them) and didn’t bother with a base It was wonderfully warming and something I will make again when the weather turns cold Thanks for posting , I also omitted the mushrooms as per the tastes of my family Im used to open face shepards pie, (sans the bottom crust) but this was a very nice change Id like to also try it with some beef and beef gravey in place of the chicken I served some chicken gravey on the side and also threw alittle bit into the chicken/veggie mixture, because i think it was missing the moisture from the butter sauce the mushrooms would have added The dish was very well recived by the family Made for Aussie Swap
