I added in frozen peas and corn plus I did 1/2 pond each ground beef and pork. What a great comforting meal.

I loved, loved, loved this recipe. I thought all the ingredients went well together. My husband, on the other hand, said it was just ok. I don't think he cared for the flavor of the dried rosemary. Oh well, leaves more for me! The only thing I changed was I used the frozen peas and carrots instead of canned.

A great way to use up extra mashed potatoes. The whole family enjoyed it.

I loved this recipe. It was so good and easy. I used healthy request soup to lighten it up a bit and a pouch of betty crocker mashed potatoes

This was really good! I did use fresh mushrooms and cooked them with the beef and onions instead of canned mushrooms. As others have stated, the only thing I would change is maybe use less salt. There's so much flavor it doesn't really need it.

My husband raved about this recipe last night. I used thawed frozen peas & carrots as I thought the canned ones would be to mushy. Also, I omitted the salt and used unsalted mushrooms, then increased the pepper. Can't wait for a cool fall night to eat this by the fire!

This Shepherd's Pie was great. Loved using the Rosemary and the mashed potatos were yummy with the cream cheese and sour cream. Next time I will definately cut down the salt and then this will be perfect!
