Beef Shepherd's Pie

I made this recipe last October and it was so delicious, that it's been on my mind ever since. I am making it again tonight and that is my cue to post the recipe on my blog! I found the recipe here. I double this recipe and today I am trying it out in the crockpot - I will post how that goes.

Beef Shepherd's Pie
INGREDIENTS:
Serves 5-6
4 cups mashed potatoes
garlic salt
1lb ground beef
1/3 cup onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 Tablespoons GF flour
1 Tablespoon tomato paste
1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 Tablespoon soy sauce
1 can (14.5oz) chicken broth
2 cups frozen vegetable medley
salt & pepper
HOW TO PREPARE:
1. Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. Brown ground beef, onions and garlic in a large
skillet on med-high heat. When meat is completely cooked, stir in flour and cook for
1-2 minutes.
2. Stir in tomato paste, worcestershire sauce, soy sauce and chicken broth. Simmer
for 5-6 minutes, or until sauce is thick. Turn the heat off and stir in frozen
vegetables and salt and pepper, to taste.
3. Pour beef mixture into a large, oven-proof casserole dish. Top with mashed
potatoes and smooth with a spatula. Sprinkle garlic salt on top of mashed potatoes.
4. Place casserole dish on a large sheet pan (in case the sauce overflows) and bake for
20-30 minutes, or until top is golden brown. Ladle and serve!
