Recipe 59 : Shepard's Pie



2 lbs. ground beef
1 onion, diced
2 cans cream of celery soup
carrots, coarsely chopped
green beans, halved
mashed potatoes
2 cups cheddar cheese

Brown the ground beef in a large skillet; drain.  Add onion and saute until tender.  Stir in soup and vegetables.  Place the ground beef mixture in the slow cooker.  Spread mashed potatoes over the top.  Sprinkle with cheddar cheese.  Cook on LOW for 5-6 hours, taking the lid off the last 30 minutes.

Who doesn't love a good dose of comfort food?  And this hits the spot!  This delicious meal is so easy to make and a hit with everyone who has tried it!  There is definitely room to play with this recipe, but this exact one is pretty good.  I used regular carrots instead of the baby carrots- about 3.  Just a handful of fresh green beans- washed and chopped in half.  I used a bag of the frozen steam and mash potatoes.  Of course, if you have leftover potatoes, feel free to use them for this.  Also, use whatever vegetables you please.  Canned vegetables, fresh vegetables, no vegetables.  It doesn't matter with this one- tinker with it to fit your taste!  And what best to serve it with- Sheep Herder's Bread of course!  Yum!
