Shepherds’ pie for Christmas eve



 Delish- made 4-5 servings. Found the recipe here https://www.thewholesomedish.com/the-best-classic-shepherds-pie/  But did some substitutions. Used gf measure for measure flour in place of regular flour. In place of meat we used a combination of soy crumbles and pea based ones as shown below.

We also use the Mcdougall recipe for the potato part when wanting to go vegan
