Shepherd's Pie

So last night for dinner I made my version of Shepherd's Pie, then forgot to take a picture for the blog! I will have to update again at another point next time I make it. Anyway, not to let a lack of a picture deter people from getting the recipe:

Shepherd's Pie

5 Russet Potatoes
1 pound Ground Beef, preferably 93/7 lean
1 package Frozen Mixed Vegetables (I use Steamfresh's Corn/Carrots/Asparagus)
Olive Oil
Flour
1 can Campbell's Condensed Tomato Soup (prepare by diluting with 1 can of water)
Milk
Cheddar Cheese

First get a large pot of water boiling. Cut up the potatoes into manageable wedges and throw into the boiling water until tender.

Over medium heat brown the ground beef. Add the mixed vegetables straight to the beef to thaw them out. Pour the mixture into the bottom of a casserole dish.

Using the same pan from the beef mixture, pour in a few tablespoons of olive oil. Sprinkle flour in by spoonful until you get a thin paste. Slowly add the tomato soup to the paste until it is all added and makes a thick sauce. Pour over the beef mixture and mix it all.

Once the potatoes are done cooking, drain the water. Pour in some milk and mash. Spoon and smooth over the beef mixture. Sprinkle cheddar cheese on top. Bake in the oven at 350 degrees F until the cheese has melted.
