Crock-Pot Shepherd’s Pie!

in Crock Pot Recipes, Dinner, Recipes on 04/12/11

Crock Pot Shepherd’s Pie!  Susan from Permanent Posies is back with another great recipe this week!  This one is a bit of a comfort food and a healthy but, frugal meal for a large family, too!  Susan and I both have 4 kids, she has 3 girls and a boy and I have 3 boys and a girl.  Our DD and her youngest DD were BFF’s growing up (her youngest girl is Emily from 52 Mantels who does some crafting in the Holiday season for us here.)

My kids – the boys really, were bottomless pits EXCEPT when I made Shepherd’s Pie!  The potatoes are what I think filled them up!  But, with the veggies added to it, it is a healthy 1 pot meal!

I love to use my Crock Pot and with kids it’s super simple and a whole lot less work in the evening and the smells that fill the air all day make your house smell amazing!

So, without further ado, here’s Susan with your recipe:

I decided to cook something I haven’t cooked since my kids were little.  Crock Pot Shepherd’s Pie!
Crock Pot Shepherd's Pie.  This was a very economical, healthy, and filling meal for my family when the kids were growing up.  They loved it, too!

Crock Pot SHEPHERD’S PIE

1/2 pound cooked ground beef
1 cup frozen English peas
1 cup frozen corn
1 can Golden Mushroom Soup
1 can Diced Tomatoes
1/3 onion, chopped
1 pkg. Instant Potatoes (prepared according to package)
2 tbsp Half and Half (Fat Free)
5 oz. grated Cheddar Cheese
Garlic Powder, Salt, Pepper, Jalapeño Powder, Goya Sazonador Total (The Perfect Seasoning)

In the Crock Pot, put the ground beef in the bottom and mix it with the Golden Mushroom Soup.  Sprinkle it with all the seasonings.  Add the onions, peas, corn and top with the tomatoes.  Sprinkle it again with all the seasonings.  Cook on high for 2 hours.

Make the instant mashed potatoes and make sure the consistency is not too thick by adding the cream to it.  This is so it will spread over the meat and vegetables easily…..which is what you do next.  Top with the cheese and cook for 15 minutes more.

I found this Goya Seasoning the other day at TJ Maxx for $2.29.  It is basically just a Mexican seasoning with garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, salt, oregano, parsley and MSG (not good).  It is

such a good complete little seasoning and I also put them in my navy beans yesterday.  Yum!  I normally use Tony Chacheres but I think I have found a new all-around seasoning.  Don’t you just love TJMaxx?  I received the Jalapeño Powder recently from a friend and have yet to use it until tonight.  It wasn’t really hot and I would like to try it on something alone to really get a good taste of it.

I found the little packet of instant potatoes at Big Lots for $1.  It is one of the better instant potatoes that I have found and only requires water to make.

Crock Pot Shepherd's PieThis entire one dish meal cost very little and would feed 3-4 people and since I already had some cooked ground beef, took very little time to prepare.

Hi, my name is Susan and I am a mother of four and a grandmother to 5 and that, along with my husband and 2 dogs, take up my most of my time. I am a side-tracked Home Executive and I had the privilege of being a stay –at-home mom so, you might say that my passion is the home and making a haven for those I love. I am quite skilled at shopping 🙂 and finding a bargain just makes my day.
