- 1 lb ground beef or lamb
- 1 small zucchini diced
- 1 cup crushed tomatoes
- Salt and pepper
Cauliflower Topping
- 1 small cauliflower cut into florets

Instructions
Shepherd’s Pie
-
-
Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan. Add the onion and garlic and sauté on medium heat until soft and translucent.
-
Add the ground beef and cook, stirring frequently, until it is browned and cooked through.
-
Add the zucchini and tomatoes and stir to combine.
-
-
Reduce the heat to a simmer. Simmer uncovered for 10 minutes.
Cauliflower Topping
-
In a large pot, add cauliflower to boiling water. Boil the cauliflower until soft, about 8-10 minutes.
-
Drain the cauliflower, allowing all steam to escape. Dry cauliflower will help make a creamier mash.
-
Transfer the drained cauliflower to a food processor. Add the butter, cream, shredded cheese, salt, and pepper. Process until smooth.
To Assemble
-
Place the ground beef mixture in the bottom of a large casserole dish. Top with the mashed cauliflower.
