Skinny Shepherd’s Pie

This Skinny Shepherd’s Pie is one of my husband’s favorite dishes! A true comfort food-delicious, filling and a meal the whole family will love!

Ingredients

• 2 (14.5 oz) cans green beans or 2 cups frozen no starchy mixed vegetables, thawed
• 1 (10.75 oz) tomato soup, condensed
• 20 oz. refrigerated mashed potatoes or real mashed potatoes
• 12 oz.  96 % lean ground beef or you can use ground turkey  ( I use Laura’s 96% Lean Ground Sirloin
• 3/4 cup light cheddar  cheese ( I use Trader Joe’s 3 lite cheese blend)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Spray a skillet pan with non stick cooking spray and cook lean ground beef over medium-high heat. Stir occasionally until meat is cooked through, about 7-8 minutes. Set cooked meat aside.
3. Spray a 9 x 9 baking dish with non stick cooking spray. Drain green beans. Spread green beans or thawed veggies evenly on the bottom of the baking dish.
4. In a small mixing bowl combine, tomato soup and cooked ground beef. Stir until combined. Pour meat mixture over the green beans and spread evenly over the green beans.
5. Microwave the mashed potatoes in the original package for 2 minutes until soft. Remove from microwave.
6. Top the meat mixture with mashed potatoes starting at the corners working around the edge. This should seal in the meat.
7. Sprinkle cheese over the top of the mashed potatoes and cover with aluminum foil.
8. Bake for 20-22 minutes and then remove aluminum foil and bake for another 5 minutes or until cheese melts.
