I made this one night for me and my boyfriend and we loved it- but I didnt get a chance to reveiw it. it was filling and sooo delicious! We went to Boston this past week and ate at an Irish pub, where he got shepards pie. To my delight- he said that the one I made was way better! Thats when I made a mental note to review this recipe. Thanks for a great dinner and great compliment!

I liked this recipe because it was so easy to prepare with ingredients I had on hand. I used fresh ground beef, roast beef gravy I had in the freezer and some cooked carrots from the fridge. When the potatoes were done I mixed in 1 cup of cheddar and stirred until it melted, then spread it over the meat and carrots, sprinkled with paprika and baked until hot and bubbly. A yummy dinner!
