One of my absolute favorite dishes is Shepherd’s Pie! It is my go to comfort food along with Chicken and Dumplings. It was also one of the first recipes I converted on paper to give my self a sense of not giving up everything I love with this new lifestyle of eating.
- 1 pounds Beef, ground (or lamb)
- 1 Tsp Onion Powder
- 1/8 Tsp Garlic Powder
- Salt & Pepper, to taste
- 1 package of green beans (cooked)
- 8 ounces Cheddar Cheese, shredded
- 2 cups Cauliflower, mashed (or riced, if you prefer)
- Brown beef, onion and garlic powders. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Put beef mixture in the bottom of four small pot pie or au gratin pans. Top beef with mashed cauliflower. Top cauliflower with shredded cheese.
- Bake at 350º for 30 minutes or until cheese has melted.
4 Servings. About 4.75 Net Carbs per serving. If you don’t mind extra carbs, you can add in the onions instead of the onion powder, jut make sure to account for it.
Personal Notes:
Just make mashed cauliflower like you would mashed potatoes with a little butter, heavy cream with salt and pepper to taste. I’ll add a recipe for it and post it too.
I actually mix beef with lamb when I make it.
I used to put a package of mixed vegetables, cooked as directed, and added it to the meat mixture. Now I put a package of green beans in or mushrooms. You can also add broccoli or spinach if you like.
This can also be made in one casserole dishinstead of individual portions.
