Here is a good/EASY Shepherd's Pie recipe..
1 pound ground beef
2 cups loose-pack frozen mixed vegetables
1 can (10¾ oz) condensed tomato bisque soup or tomato soup
½ cup low sodium beef broth
1 T. Worcestershire sauce
1 t. diced minced onion
½ t. crushed dried thyme
generous pinch ground black pepper
1 package (24oz) refrigerated mashed potatoes
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375º. Lightly grease a 2 qt rectangle baking dish and set
aside. In a large skillet cook ground beef until browned, breaking it up with a
wooden spoon while cooking. Drain off fat. Stir in mixed vegetables, tomato
bisque, broth, Worcestershire sauce, diced minced onion, thyme, and pepper.
Bring to boil over medium heat, stirring. Transfer to baking dish. Place
potatoes in large bowl, stir until smooth. Spoon potatoes into mounds on top of
the meat mixture. Bake uncovered, in preheated oven, 20-25 minutes, or until
heated through and bubbly. Sprinkle with cheese. Let stand 10 minutes before
serving.
Dinner last night, while watching and cheering on my

celery, tomato, and spinach...
I put some spicy Tabasco mayo in the avocado half topped with bacon
salt!

Sandwich Day

sandwich, by putting meat between two pieces of bread. This allowed him to
remain at the gambling table for long periods of time. Obviously, the sandwich
was named after him
Here are some great sandwich ideas:
