We’ve already featured a cottage pie recipe, but I absolutely love shepherd’s pie too. It’s great comfort food, especially as we wander into the colder months, and I like being able to add any random vegetables that I have lying around. Mmmm just writing this is making me want to go home and cook one right now! This recipe is actually to make use of leftover Christmas turkey, but you can use chicken or just plain old lamb. Either way it’s delicious. The great website I found this recipe on is American and so the measurements are in cups, sorry!
