Health Highlights

Ingredients


2 tbsp Green onion (chopped)
2 medium Carrots (chopped)
2 1/2 tbsp Frozen green peas
1/4 tsp Sage, ground
1/4 tsp Thyme, dried
171 gm Ground Beef, 90% lean
1/4 tsp Sea Salt
171 gm Sweet potato*
1 3/4 tsp Bone broth, Organic

Instructions


  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place all of the whole sweet potatoes on a baking sheet with the skin on in the oven and cook for about 45 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are soft and fork tender. Set aside to cool.
  2. Once the potatoes are done, bring the oven to 425°.
  3. To make the shepherd's pie filling, chop the mushrooms and carrots.
  4. Add in the ground beef in small chunks then sprinkle with seasonings. Stir and break up the beef with a spatula. Sauté until the beef is browned on all sides.
  5. Then add in the carrots, mushrooms, peas and 1/4 cup of broth and stir. Put a lid on the pan and allow to cook, stirring occasionally, until the carrots have softened. Then, turn off the heat and set the pan aside. 
  6. Once the roasted sweet potatoes have cooled enough to handle, remove the skin and place the potatoes into a separate bowl and add 2 tbsp chicken broth, and sea salt. Use a potato masher, immersion blender or regular blender to puree the mixture until smooth and creamy.
  7. To assemble the shepherd's pie, place the beef and vegetable mixture in a 9 inch pie dish or an 9x9 baking dish. Place the sweet potato purée on top of the beef and vegetable mixture in the pie plate and smooth evenly over the beef and vegetables.
  8. Cook at 425°F for 20 minutes. Let cool and serve.
