Ingredients

  • 1 package brown mushrooms Grind in food processor until the consistency of ground beef
  • 1 lb 80% ground beef
  • 1/4 cup Beef Stock *optional- you do not need this. I feel like it increases the flavor of the mushrooms.
  • onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt *season to your taste. I found this blend works best to complement these flavors.
  • 1 medium Onion Blended with mushrooms

Mashed Potatoes

  • 1 stick Butter salted
  • 5 large Idaho potatoes
  • 1/3 cup whole milk
  • 1 package corn I use the steam bags- follow directions, and drain extra liquid.
  • paprika, black pepper *to season corn & the top of the Shepard's pie.

Instructions

Meat & Mushroom blend

  • In a large skillet, add hamburger and food processed onion & mushroom blend.
  • Add spices, and stock.
  • You will notice a lot of liquid. You need to allow it to mainly cook off by keeping the heat to a medium high temp. Additionally, you can opt to drain it after the meat is cooked through. This will take about ten minutes or so.
  • Once meat is cooked, and liquid has cooked off, set aside.

Potatoes

  • In a stock pot bring water to a boil and cook potatoes.
  • Boil until fork tender or about 20 minutes.
  • Once they are done, drain liquid. Add butter directly to the potatoes in the pot. Add milk, and mash with a potato masher.
  • Simultaneously, while cooking the mushroom and beef blend, start the corn.
    After draining the excess liquid from the corn, layer it in a casserole dish.
  • Then, add the drained meat and mushroom mixture.
  • Lastly, smooth the potatoes over the top. You can add some paprika to the top for a smoky flavor.
  • Bake at 350 for 45 minutes. The potatoes will form a crust.
  • Enjoy warm!
