Chloe’s Cravings Shepards Pie

This is a dish that I grew up eating and to this day I still love. It takes under 45 mins to make and the best part is you can really use whatever you have in the fridge! As long as you have some meat and mashed potatoes on top, I think we are safe to say it will still be a shepards pie!!!

Did you know that it is British dish originating from the sheep country in Scotland and northern England.
