Sweet Potato Shepherds Pie
Time: 2 hr Yields: serves Cost: $3.88 per serve Difficulty: 4/10
After making this thoroughly UK feeling dinner, I sat and ate it infront of an episode of Are You Being Served. I measured the cheese but that’s because initially I was putting it into the mash. Could add carrots. Consider putting a tray underneath in the oven to catch any oil.
