Shepherd's Pie

How I make it is really cheating. I make a semi-healthy meatloaf - no ketchup or anything and I add veggies. And I make a semi-healty mashed potatoes - no cream just broth and very little cheese.

Leftovers from those items become shepherd's pie the next day. I just add gravy, peas & carrots.

One thing I did differently on this recipe is I ran out of tomato sauce for my meatloaf (Jack and I don't like ketchup on meatloaf. So I put sriracha sauce instead). Whoa. It was some spicy meatloaf & shepherd's pie.

We discovered that we like the meatloaf & shep pie spicy but not THAT spicy. So next time, I think I'll do a half-tomato sauce/half-sriracha.

Side of salad completes the meal. :)
