Something a Little Different for the Chef in the House
This is a bit of a twist on your typical Shepherds Pie
What you Will Need:
- 1 x lb ground beef (or turkey or chicken)
- 1 x chopped small onion
- a bit of cooking oil
- 1 x cup of chopped mushrooms (optional)
- 1 x Beef OXO cube dissolved in a 1/2 cup of water
- 1 x tablespoon corn starch or soup thickener
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup x HP Sauce or A1 steak sauce (my secret ingredient!)
- 1 x Box Stove Top Stuffing
Method:
Pre-Heat Oven to 400 Degrees F.
- Heat the cooking oil and add the chopped onion and mushrooms.
- Cook until softened
- Add the ground meat and cook until no pink is showing.
- Add the OXO mixture, salt and pepper and the HP or A1 sauce.
- Stir well
- Add the corn starch (this thickens the gravy)
- Pour into a casserole dish and set aside
Make the Stuffing
- Make the Stove Top Stuffing
- in a separate pot following the package directions.
- Spread the stuffing over the meat mixture when it is ready.
- Bake in oven for 20 minutes or until the stuffing is crispy on top and meat is bubbling.
- Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
- Makes great leftovers too!
Change it Up Depending On What you Have Leftover in Your Fridge
The best part about this recipe is that you can mix and match too! Add different flavors, different sauces or spices.
I just find that the layer of stuffing on top instead of the traditional mashed potatoes really adds a nice flavor.
I had a box laying around from Christmas, and didn't just want it as a side dish and I wasn't planning a turkey anytime soon and it wasn't quite enough to stuff one!
Add the stuffing over any casserole, I have even used it on tuna casserole it tastes great.
