Lost Shepherd's Pie

This pie is as classic as savory pies get, yet it's pretty complex and has lots of moving parts. It's a little time consuming, but without a doubt worth the time. The different ingredients and layers in this pie are delicious, and I'm certain that this is a dinner favorite among Joe's Pie diners. This recipe uses lots of different veggies and requires some multi-tasting! You'll be running back and forth from your meat mixture to your mashed potato mixture until time for final pie assembly!

"A dinner pie with a layer of savory lamb, carrots, onion, peas, corn, garlic, and herbs, topped with a creamy layer of mashed potatoes. Baked and melted together into a beautiful dinner pie."

I didn't know that pies can be filled with vegetables instead of fruits like apple and coconut. And surprisingly, even though I am not into any veggies, I think I need to try this for my family. They will surely love this because I will be putting all of their favorite vegetables. Is it possible to put chicken instead of grilled meat? My mom decided that she doesn't want to eat any pork. So I am wondering if I can use chicken as a substitute. Well, I think I will be able to make certain of this once I tried it on my own. I just wish it will taste and look as good as yours.
