About Shepard pie

Shepherd’s Pie is a hearty dish with origins in British and Irish cuisine, traditionally made with minced lamb, though beef is often substituted in modern versions. The filling combines savory ground meat with vegetables like onions, carrots, and peas, simmered in a rich gravy. This is layered beneath a topping of creamy mashed potatoes, often baked until golden. Shepherd’s Pie is a comfort food rich in protein from the meat and fiber from the vegetables, making it a balanced meal. However, it can also be high in calories and saturated fat, particularly if made with butter-heavy mashed potatoes or fatty cuts of meat. By using leaner protein options and incorporating sweet potatoes or cauliflower into the topping, its nutritional profile can be improved, offering a lighter, yet equally satisfying, version of this classic dish.
