Sheppard’s Pie

This is a favorite at our Restaurant, The Cactus Café in Stowe Vermont. We’ve adapted this recipe by using some items you can buy in the store in order to save time. Such as frozen corn instead of cooking fresh corn and cutting it off the cob or the beef gravy.

South Western Sheppard’s Pie:

Ingredients:

• 1-2 pounds of ground beef, you can substitute ground turkey
• 1 onion. diced
• 2 cloves of garlic, diced
• 10-15 mushrooms, sliced
• Beef gravy, homemade or jar or from packet
• 1 table spoon chipotle peppers in adobo’s sauce, diced
• pound bag of frozen corn or fresh cooked and cut off the cob, about 8 ears
• 4 potatoes diced
• 1 table spoon butter
• ¼ cup milk
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Shredded cheddar

Directions:
Cook ground beef and remove from pan. Leave fat from beef in to sauté the onions, garlic and mushrooms. Drain off any excess fat (or make homemade gravy with that). Combine beef and onion mixture with gravy and chipotle’s, mix well.

Boil a large pot of water and add potatoes. Cook until tender and mash with butter and milk. Salt and pepper to taste Cover to keep warm.
In a casserole dish with non stick spray add beef mixture then layer corn and mashed potatoes in that order top with cheddar cheese and bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes add Cheddar cheese and Deano's Jalapenos Ranch flavored chips and put back in oven until cheese is melted.

At the Cactus Café our South Western Sheppard’s pie is made from scratch and we also serve it in a fried flour tortilla bowl with fresh greens tossed in olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper around the base.
