We really enjoyed this although I made some changes out of necessity. Instead of mixing the hamburg with egg, I used a can of golden mushroom soup. I also added a half of a red pepper, a grated carrot and about 5 mushrooms all of which I needed to use up. I used the delicious Cowboy Mashed Potatoes (also from this site) and I put a can of cream corn over the meat because that is what they did on a local cooking show and I had already bought the cream corn. I think the cream corn made it a little sweet. I sprinkled a little garlic powder and celery seed over the browning meat. I know it sounds like a lot of changes and I hate it when people really deviate from the recipe and then rate it but it was just so good. Thank you for a thrifty forgiving recipe, Alicia. Oh yes, I did not use any pie crust. I just put the meat in the casserole.

I loved it and so did my fiance - I added a little extra ketchup because I'm weird and like it, and we baked the crust a little bit before hand because we like a more crispy crust. I used yukon gold instant mashed potatoes - and it turned out SO good. I would highly recommend this recipe.

Shepard's Pie with the addition of a crust. I liked it. I used about 3 TBLS of ketchup.

This recipe prepared as written is almost flavorless. I was really disappointed.

This was outstanding! I read the other reviews and like others I did not use a pie crust (that sounds disgusting to me) and placed the burger on the bottom of the pie plate with a layer of cheese, a layer of corn, mashed potatoes and another layer of cheese. To give it flavor when I browned the ground beef I put Montreal Steak Seasoning in the burger with some sea salt and garlic. I used bold A-1 steak sauce as well. This was a HIT!!! YUM

I gave this recipe a 3 because I found it to be dry. I will try again but I'm thinking of adding a can of oregano/basil tomatoe soup to the meat mixture and mixing the corn into the meat mixture. It's a great idea it just needs a little tweaking.

I made this because it has ingredients that are usually in my house. I this came out much better than expected. The corn makes it. only change I made was added garlic powder because I like garlic.

So yummy! Made a homemade pie crust from this site first, baked it for about fifteen minutes, then layered meat/onion mixture, then corn (sticks to mashers better) then mashers, then cheddar. I used Resers already made mashed potatoes ( keep them on hand for quick dinners, they are SO good ) will defenitely make this over and over. So delicious. We ate it two days in a row!

Made this to the letter. Good, but felt it was missing something. My husband said that if the meat had more of a gravy, then it would have been excellent. Maybe mix in some brown gravy, perhaps.

I've made this twice now and I'm really surprised my family likes it. It's kind of the KFC dinner bowl idea - everything together. I use a can of golden shroom soup in the meat mixture for more moisture/gravy with peas, corn and mashed potatoes on top. I use the premade mashies sold in stores now. This is really easy and good.

Great Staple. Made this 3 times already. I like to mix it up. Second time I added green pepper and used pasta sauce instead of ketchup. Yummo! Third time I added 1 pkg of oniion soup mix and an extra half cup of V8 juice! Even better!!! Thanks!!

This was an excellent recipe for these colder months. I followed the recommendations of another user and doubled the ketchup and worchestershire sauce and with the egg -- I added it in with the cooked beef and onion as not to dirty another dish. I also used Pillsbury refridgerated pie crusts and pre-baked them ten minutes and then filled -- reducing the cooking time afterward to 20 minutes only. I did however cook my meal at 450 degrees instead of 350 to account for the shorter cook time and it worked out nicely. My husband really enjoyed this recipe and I think the only changes I would have made would be to add some salt and pepper to taste into the meat mixture. We will definately make this again.

I made this for the first time tonight. Used ground bison, instead of beef (because we prefer it), used 2 Tbsp. each of ketchup and w. sauce and omitted the mashed potatoes on the top. We loved it! My husband and I agreed that we would make it again. Thanks for the recipe!

I appear to be in the minority here, but I didn't like this that much. The canned corn was not good. I did bake my pie crust for about 15 minutes before I added the meat mixture and it would not have been cooked if I hadn't. I increased the ketsup to 1/4 cup and the worchestershire to 2 Tbsp but it still lacked something in flavor. Not something I'd make again.

My husband and picky daughter gobbled this up! I stirred the very well drained corn in with the beef mixture before pouring it into the pie crust, which I had prebaked for 7-8 min at 350. It was easy to throw together for a weeknight meal. Will make again!!

This was quite good. I needed to throw something together quick for lunch today, and found this on the ingredient search. For the crust I used a pat-in-the-pan pie crust recipe I found on the internet, because I was too lazy to roll a crust out. (www.exit109.com/~mstevens/lrccookb/PATINPAN.htm) I boiled 3 medium sized potatoes and mashed them up with a little milk and sour cream for the potatoes. When cooking the ground beef, I added about a clove of minced garlic, and when mixing the meat with the binding mixture, upped the ketchup to 1/4 c. as others recommended. Overall, very good, simple, and something that I always have the ingredients around for. We will make it again. Thanks for the recipe!

I have made this a few times. We enjoy it, and it I like it because it is easy. The first time I made it, I followed the recipe. The second time I made it, I forgot the egg, and couldn't tell the difference. So now I leave it out. I do add a little more ketchup & worcestershire than called for. I also use frozen corn, and the last couple of times I have added a drained can of green beans.

This was quick and easy to make, everyone thought it was just ok though. Next time I will precook my pie crust for a while, not something we'll have very often.

The family really liked this one. I made it with ground turkey instead of beef. Added 4 tablespoons ketchup and a few healthy dashes of worcestershire. Next time I'll add the condiments sooner in an effort to get the ground turkey more tender.
