Easy Shepherd's Pie for Quick Comfort

**Picture to follow**

It doesn't get better than Shepherd's Pie, except for EASY Shepherd's Pie. My favorite, mostly from scratch recipe is as follows:

• Preheat Oven 350 degrees
• 1 lb. ground beef
• 1 small onion, diced
• 2 baking potatoes worth of your favorite mashed potatoes
• Make it even quicker option: use the pre-made mashed potatoes
  
• 3 Tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce
• 1 Tablespoon AP flour
• 1/2 c. frozen peas and carrots (I really like the frozen variety, but these can be fresh, too)
• 1/2 c. shredded mozzarella

Cook onion and ground beef together till ground beef browned in a medium sized skillet. Add flour and let it cook for another 4 minutes. Add Worcestershire Sauce and make sure all the ground beef is coated with the sauce. Add peas and carrots. Move mixture to a small casserole dish. Top with mashed potatoes then mozzarella cheese. Put in oven until cheese browned. Tada!

Other variations:

• Use another type of cheese
• Replace ground beef with diced beef
• Use mixed veggies instead of peas and carrots
• Don't use any veggies in the beef mix, but put creamed corn over the beef
• Top the beef mix with Parmesan cheese before adding the potatoes
• Don't add cheese at all
