I cooked 2 diced carrots and 1 small onion with the ground beef. added salt and pepper and italian seasoning. used 2 1\2 cups of frozen peas, corn and beans. did not thaw them. next time will just mix all the cheese with the potatoes. very easy and good recipe. not sure why people say too salty. I used reg beef stock and seasoned the potatoes and meat mixture.

I LOVE this! The veggies give it such a good taste. IF you accidently buy the beef broth with salt, you can add 1/3 of a cup of that and it won't turn out too salty. I added the amount it said for the broth but it was much too salty. Also add bacon to add a bit more flavour!

This was excellent ! Loved by the whole family! Good thing I doubled the recipe! They also took it for lunch! Just made little changes to my family 's taste , added small chopped fried onion to the vege mix , rooster hot sauce and a half can of mushroom sauce to the vege mix and the other half to the mashed potatoes as the other review suggested . Thank you everyone !

I think adding some onion would enhance the flavor. I really did prefer this meal on the 2nd day. I also put a layer of cheese between the potatoes and meat mixture. I would a mexican blend of cheese for this dish.

Seeing as I am a pre-diabetic, whenI saw this I thought, I would give it a try, as I like Shepherd's Pie. My old recipe, did not fit my diet requirements. Well low & behold it was fantastic,even my picky husband, who hated Shepherd's Pie loved this new recipie...I did add a few extra spices that was it. Please have more recipes for people with Diabetia's...
