Shepard's Pie

The prep time on this recipe was a little longer than I expected with all the chopping, but it turned out really delicious. I've actually never made Shepard's Pie before, in fact, I've never eaten Shepard's Pie before! I must say, I am pleasantly surprised at how yummy it is in it's paleo version.

Serves 4-6

1 Medium onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, chopped

1 lb. ground beef or turkey (I used grass fed gb from whole foods)

2 cups veggies (I used a mix of onion, mushrooms, celery and carrots) chopped

1 head of cauliflower

1 egg

Olive oil for sauteeing

Dash of cayenne pepper for flavoring (told you I add this to almost everything!) 
2 dashes of turmeric

Preheat oven at 350 degrees

Lots of chopping going on here. 

Remove Cauliflower florets from head. Heat a small amount of water in sauce pan with cauliflower. Cover and cook until tender. Mash and set aside to cool. 

In a frying pan, begin browning meat with garlic and onion. Once the meat is thoroughly browned, add other veggies and cook until they soften. 

Mix in the egg with the cooked, mashed cauliflower. Put meat and veggies in 8x8 pan and top with cauliflower. Bake for 30 minutes or until the top becomes brown. Remove from oven and serve.
