This recipe has received so many rave reviews over at Taste of Home! I’m actually not surprised by that at all, since this is definitely comfort food at its best. I can’t even imagine a situation where I wouldn’t want to have this for dinner!

Let’s take a look at what kind of feedback this recipe has received:

After 3 helpings of this dish, my husband said I could add this dish to our weekly dinner rotation. I added chopped carrots instead of the corn along with a teaspoon as thyme and it was delicious. Definitely a keeper!

This gets 5 stars because both of my picky eater daughters loved it..one meal and two kids liking it..wow, that rarely happens! Personally I needed to add some salt and pepper on my plate. Thank you for this great tween-friendly recipe!

 

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef

1 cup chopped onion

2 cups frozen corn, thawed

2 cups frozen peas, thawed

2 tablespoons ketchup

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

2 teaspoons minced garlic

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1 teaspoon beef bouillon granules

1/2 cup cold water

1/2 cup sour cream

3-1/2 cups mashed potatoes (prepared with milk and butter)

3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions:

Cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the corn, peas, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and garlic. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and cook for 5 minutes.

Mix together the cornstarch, bouillon and water until well combined; stir into beef mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Stir in sour cream and heat through.

Spread mashed potatoes over the top; sprinkle with cheese. Cover and cook until heated through and cheese is melted.

Freeze option: Prepare beef mixture as directed but do not add sour cream. Freeze cooled meat mixture in a freezer container. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Heat through in a large skillet, stirring occasionally and adding a little water if necessary. Stir in sour cream and proceed as directed.

Quick tip: A lot of traditional Shepard’s Pies, also comes with tomatoes.  The best way to add these to the recipe, is the buy a can of whole peeled tomatoes, and squash them before putting them in with the corn and peas.
