Over the holidays we made this for a get together we went to. David isn't a Shepherd's pie kind of guy so we added some bbq sauce, bacon, and cheddar cheese to the traditional dish for a fun twist.
This freezes well too. Just let it cool after preparing, cover and freeze. When ready to eat let it thaw, cover and bake 75 minutes. Then uncovered for 5 - 10 minutes longer until heated through.
Enjoy!
