The reviewer gave this recipe 5 stars. This recipe averages a 4.52 star rating.

Really easy, and REALLY yummy! I tweaked it according to other reviews, like adding 2 cloves garlic among other additions. The recipe calls for "salt to taste" on the potato portion, but I felt it needed it on the meat mix too. Thanks so much - fam loved it!

This is an okay shepherd's pie. I have made better ones but this one had good flavor in the ground beef and was very easy to assemble. I did use frozen peas and carrots in place of mashed carrots. My family really liked this but I will continue to try new shepherd's pie recipes. This is not THE ONE, but it's okay till I find it.

Very good recipe and you can tweak the veggies how you like them. I like to do a meat, cheese, veggies, cheese, potatoes then heavy cheese on top. Use a good instant potato for a quick fix. Awesome.

I have never attempted shepherd's pie. I didn't have carrots or peas so I opted for green beans and lima beans which are favorites in my house. I only had ground turkey so I added 2 tbsp of ketchup and lots of garlic powder to the beef broth. I enjoyed this but I felt like it needed more gravy so made some on the side to top it off with (beef garlic gravy). It is now a favorite in my house and I try to make it monthly during winter months.

Pretty good, but not our favorite. I made the mistake of cooking the potatoes and carrots together even though I planned to mash them separately -- dumb! It was a messy, hot pain to separate the chunks after all was cooked. I added 1/2 c. worcestershire and doubled the ketchup, plus added some green beans and cooked them in the meat mixture. Added some sour cream to the potatoes -- they needed a LOT of salt to have much flavor, and we still needed to add salt to our helpings on the plate. Again, not bad, but not terribly exciting, even with all the tweaking.

I don't generally like Sheppherd's Pie, but made it for my husband. I added a few cloves of garlic when I chopped the onions and used lamb instead of beef. I actually liked it alot and it was easy to make. Will make again.

This was okay. My family didn't like it to much so I probably won't make it again. It's a quick easy recipe if you are looking for that.

This recipe gets 5 stars for being inexpensive but 4 stars for taste. I definitely will make again, but it's not the type of meal to make for company.

Hearty! Used the water/gravy mix combination instead of beef broth, still added the ketchup. Made it up in the afternoon and baked it in the evening. Definitely tasty and worth the time to mash the potatoes and carrots. A keeper.

I followed the other reviewers and used a packet of gravy and worstershire. I used instant mashed potatoes and a frozen bag of peas and carrots and it turned out great. The whole family loved it, my husband asked me to make it again next week.

My daughter loves this! I changed it up a bit like others suggested. I added the 1/4 Worcestershire sauce to the meat, didn't have beef broth so I added 1 bullion cube and a cup of water and about 1 tbsp of seasoning salt. I used 1 bag of Birds Eye frozen mixed veggies. I didn't have onion so I added green onions with the cheddar on top of the potatoes. I added about a half cup of sour cream and a tbsp of seasoning salt to my potatoes as well. Delicious!

I like this recipe, the only thing I changed was instead of using beef broth and ketchup, I used an envelope of dry brown gravy mix. I wasn't sure if I'd care for it as much with a tomato flavored "broth" in the meat.

I just made this recipe and it was pretty easy and delicious. I used ground turkey and turkey sausage instead of the ground beef and I added a Lipton's onion package to it to give it a little bit of flavor. I also mixed in some sliced mushrooms with my onions. Overall, it's a pretty good recipe. Chopping everything up was a little time consuming but I managed. :)
