Shepherd’s Pie with Cauliflower Mash

Healthy Eating· Recipes

Jump to Recipe

Normally when I think of “Pi Day”, I think dessert pie. But pie is not a preferred dessert for my family, so it took me a minute to realize I actually had a pie recipe I could share today. It’s just not THAT type of pie! I made this healthier version of shepherd’s pie the other day and thought it was a delicious comfort food that deserved sharing. Side note: this is actually what is considered “cottage pie” since it is made with ground beef. If you want a true shepherd’s pie, you would use ground lamb. Who knew?

I made this recipe with a bag of frozen veggies I had on hand, but it could easily be made with fresh veggies as well…think peas, carrots and green beans, for example. But I was short on time and did not have a mix of veggies I wanted to include, so I found a frozen medley in my freezer.

It had been a while since I had used my food processor. It is a small beast of a contraption that is stored in the back of my corner cabinet, so I’m always reluctant to dig it out and even more reluctant to have to hand wash it. But it was definitely worth it for this cauliflower mash topping. My younger son didn’t touch the dish because the vegetables were too hard to pick out. My oldest son said it was good but that he would have rather had potatoes on top, to which I replied, doesn’t everyone?!

This recipe made quite a lot of servings and I have found that it heats up well as leftovers. I hope you enjoy and Happy Pi Day!

Happy New Year! I’ve been a little absent becaus Happy New Year! I’ve been a little absent because I started the year off with a cold that left me tired and unmotivated. But I’m feeling better and starting my goal tracking a little late. I thought it would be helpful to combine all our goal trackers into one file for easy downloading and printing. The link to the all-in-one file can be found in our profile @everydayroadtohealthy ☝🏼. Swipe to see January printed at 75% and taped inside my planner. I’m hoping this works better for me this year!
💚 Start where you are. 🤎
