I am slowly getting back to normal with my online activity. Actually, I couldn't wait to return to cooking with four fabulous ladies who make up our Donna Hay group. I had never heard of Donna Hay before the group. It was the participants that was the draw to this group and it was an excellent decision.
This week , Gaye chose Shepherd's Pie (page 158 in Modern Classics I). I have made variations of Shepherd's Pie over the year and this was not that different. It did have peas and carrots who I didn't include before this. Having the veggies added nutrition, color and taste.
I subbed chopped turkey for beef. I stuck with the vegetables and spices and ended up with a filling dish which was completely satisfying and got a thumbs up from Hubby.
Check the other ladies, Kayte, Margaret and Gaye, three good cooks who know how to present their dishes.
I like ethe idea of the chopped turkey. This was good, wasn't it?
ReplyDeleteI love Donna Hay recipes, no nonsense, no extras that add a lot of fat and calories, just nice fresh food...no fake ingredients...prepared simply. What's not to love, right? Your pie looks wonderful and I like the idea of ground turkey also so it is nice to know that it worked well in this recipe.
ReplyDeleteI just discovered Shepherd's pie last year and have become a huge fan! I love your version of it!
