This was very good...my first time with "Shepherd's Pie" also....I love the magazine as it gives new ideas and this one was a winner. My husband and I both had some for lunch the next day---this reheats well and was maybe even tastier the second time around. Will make it again!

I added maybe a 1/4 cup of A1 sauce to it. My picky teenager loved it!
