Shepherd's Pie

What's for dinner, Shepherd's Pie!
Meat pie is a comfort, its simplicity warms my heart. I only half feel bad about my pie until I eat it and then I am just fine with the packet of brown gravy in it. I had to throw away my fridge one week after buying more then my budget for the month of groceries. Now I am piecing together meals and trying not but spend too much more money. So on the menu for tonight is peanut butter rice Krispies and Shepherd's Pie... in that order, wink.

Shepherd's Pie
1# burger, cooked and drained
1# frozen mixed veggies like corn, green beans, and carrots, thawed
1 packet brown gravy
3# mashed red potatoes
Cook gravy according to directs, add meat and veggies. Put into a 9 x 13 pan. Top with mashed potatoes made to your liking. I love to add salt, pepper, sour cream, egg yokes, and milk. This is a great way to use left over yokes if you have made a white cake or if you did a white only egg wash on some bread.
