Shepherd's Pie Stuffed Potatoes
Ingredients
- TOPPING
- 4 Large Potatoes baked, cut in half and scoop out
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 T butter
- Salt to Taste
- FILLING
- 1/2 lb. to 1 lb. ground beef (browned)
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 medium onion (diced)
- 1.5 cups frozen mixed vegetables
- 2 T flour
- 1 cup beef stock
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. thyme
- 1/2 tsp. oregano
- 1/2 tsp. black pepper
Directions
- Bake your potatoes. Let cool a bit then cut them in half, reserving potato insides. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
- In a mixing bowl, mix up your potato insides, the milk, butter and salt to make your topping. Set aside.
- In a skillet, use a little oil and brown your onions and garlic until tender. Then add your ground beef and brown. If needed, drain off grease or use a paper towel to blot out extra grease.
- Sprinkle your flour over meat mixture and stir well to thicken and absorb juices. Add remaining ingredients, stir well and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until thickened (about 5 minutes).
- Fill each potato skin boat with the meat mixture.
- Using a spoon or a piping bag, top filling with a generous helping of the potato topping. Sprinkle over a little dried parsley and bake for 15-20 minutes or until potato topping is a little browned.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
