“If everyone lived on mashed potatoes, the world would be a happy place.”
– EV, Food Philosopher and Potato Lover
I couldn't agree more! Whether mashed, baked or roasted, potatoes are definitely one of my staple foods. They are plant-based, gluten-free, low-fat, filling, diverse, rich in vitamin B6, potassium and other essential nutrients. Unfortunately, most people eat potatoes in the form of greasy French fries or potato chips, and even baked potatoes are typically loaded down with fats such as butter, sour cream, melted cheese and bacon bits. Such treatment can make even baked potatoes a potential contributor to a heart attack. But take away the extra fat and deep frying, and a baked potato is an exceptionally healthful low calorie, high fiber food that offers significant protection against cardiovascular disease and cancer.
One of my favourite ways to eat potatoes is mashed! It's a true comfort food for me: creamy, thick, soft and super satisfying.
I had actually never made or tried a shepherd's pie up until now, but the recipe turned out so well, I decided to take pictures and share it with you! I even measured out the exact ingredients for you this time :) It's already become one of my favourite dishes!!
