Perfect use of pot roast leftovers. this was my first Shepherd's Pie. I sautéed parboiled carrots and frozen peas along with the beef before layering. I forgot to season the veggies. my bisquick mix was a little too thick, but still good with that butter on top.
Next time I'll use instant flake potatoes if I don't have pre-made mashed. and fry the onion and beef in olive oil instead of butter. but i liked the butter drizzled on top of the crust.

This recipe was fantastic. It was my first Shepherd's Pie recipe, and my entire family loved it (my picky husband & 3 year old son included! I was feeling extra lazy and wanted to throw something together since I had leftover pot roast, so I used box mashed potatoes (yes, the powder ones and threw on frozen corn. It still turned out absolutely freakin' delicious! This one will definitely be a family favorite from now on.

AMAZING! I used canned baby peas for the vegetable layer because that's what my family likes. I had to use a 9x13 baking dish because it wouldnt all fit in a 9x9. The cheese crust went so well with the beef and gravy, and the potato/vegetable layers underneath rounded this dish out so it felt like you're eating an entire meal. This is for sure going to be a family favorite from now on, GREAT comfort food!

I made this with left over roast. I loved it. My husband loves this during the winter months when he's been outside all day.

Delicious! I used half the butter and leftover asparagus and green beans, also added mushrooms. My husband hates leftovers and didn't realize that was what he was eating.

This was excellent. Used about half as much butter and did not put any melted butter on top. I chopped the meat very small as my youngest daughter does not like roast beef but she ate this all up. I used frozen peas as the vegetable. My husband loved the biscuit like topping. I made extra gravy so that it could be put on each serving as needed. I will definitely make this again.

This was a fabulous was to use up leftover roast beef! The recipe didn't specify gravy in the ingredients, just when it told you to layer each thing. That was the only thing that we need to do next time, make sure there is enough gravy because it was a little dry. Also, make sure you use a casserole dish with HIGH sides! We didn't have enough room to pour all of the baking mix on top. Thanks Paula for sharing!!

Another good Paula Deen recipe....but really, you don't need to use all of that butter. I'm sure it would make it taste that much better, but butter isn't cheap and is certainly full of fat and calories! I thought this tasted just fine using about half the butter. Remember to season all of the layers; I forgot to season the vegetables (which were prepared 'according to package directions' and they needed a little salt.

This was excellent! We practically licked our plates! I made it using good old fashioned pot roast made with onion soup mix and canned mushroom soup, and added a tablespoon of browning sauce to the gravy. And, instead of mixed vegetables, I sliced and roasted carrots in the oven, and added some frozen peas (prepared according to package direction. I used about half the butter in the mashed potatoes, and omitted the sour cream. I sauted the pot roast and onion in a bit of olive oil to make it a little bit healthier. :

Delicious! This is the first time I made shepherd's pie and I was soo happy with the result I will make it again every time I have leftover pot roast. I didn't have enough gravy so I added the same * ingredients I had to make pot roast yesterday to the sauteed onions and meat. [*ingredients: cream of mushroom soup,red wine,beef bouillon, worcestershire sauce,water.
By the way, to some people who had been insisting that Shepherd's pie meat should always be lamb, sorry you are WRONG. I looked it up at Wikipedia. Beef is the most widely- used... but one can use lamb too or whatever meat he chooses. It is also called Cottage Pie.
