Today's Lunch: Shepherd's Pie

Ingredients:

1 pound ground beef

4 baking potatoes

1/2 onion or Onion Powder (I use onion powder, the kids hate the texture of onions)

1 TBSP Butter or Margarine

1/4 C. Butter or Margarine

1/4 C. Milk

1 Bag Frozen Mixed Veggies (Or just corn, green beans, carrots, whatever you like!)

1 TBSP Ketchup

1/2 C. Cheese (Cheddar, Colby Jack, Mozzarella... whatever you got!  I used Cheddar/Jack)

Preheat oven to 375.
POTATOES:  Peel and cut up potatoes, and start boiling them.

BEEF:  Meanwhile, cook ground beef with some onion OR onion powder, stir in ketchup and put in 2 QT, oil-sprayed baking dish.

 VEGGIES:  Steam the frozen veggies with TBSP of butter (I used the micro) and layer on top of ground beef.

ASSEMBLY:  Your potatoes should be done by now.  Go ahead and mash them with the 1/4 cup of butter and 1/4 cup milk.  Use as much butter and milk as you need.  Place mashed potatoes on top of veggies, and top with Cheese.  Bake mixture for about 20-25 minutes until cheese is melted and browned a little.

Enjoy! - Carrie
