Crock pot Sheperd’s pie
Description
The Crock pot Shepherd’s pie uses ground beef browned and drained, combined with frozen peas and carrots and cream of mushroom soup in a slow cooker. The mashed Russet potatoes are spread on top midway through cooking, allowing them to cook gently and develop a soft but set texture. The beef and vegetable layer provides a savory base with mild onion and garlic flavors, complemented by the creamy mushroom soup which helps keep the filling moist.
Because it cooks over several hours on low heat, the vegetables soften thoroughly and the flavors blend. Serving it right away ensures the mashed potato topping keeps a good texture without getting soggy. This recipe is useful for those who want a classic shepherd’s pie without fussing over the oven or stovetop during the cook time.
