Shepherds Pie

So everyone has heard that shepherds pie isn't good.
Well.... This is good stuff. My picky eater loves it!!

Pretty healthy and pretty simple, a great make ahead
for later in the day or week or to even freeze.

1 lb Ground chicken
4 Cups of mashed potatoes
1/2 Small onion diced
2 Carrots peeled diced
1 Teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 Teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 Cup chicken broth
2 Tablespoons flour

In a large skillet combine onion,ground chicken
seasonings  cook stirring occasionally until chicken
is done. Add carrots and mix well,
stir in chicken broth and bring to a boil, let boil
for 3-5 minutes.
Transfer meat mixture to 8 inch
pie plate and top with mashed potatoes spreading
them evenly to the outer edges of pie plate.

***If you are eating this right away then just put under the broiler for
until top is golden brown and kind of has a
crust on it.

**If eating this later in the day or week preheat oven
to 350 bake covered for 20-25 minutes. Remove from oven
and place back in the oven under the broiler for a few minutes
uncovered until the top is brown and has a crust on it.

** If pulling from the freezer you can put it right in the
oven @ 350 but would want to bake it for
35-45 minutes covered before putting it in the broiler.
