Would you add peas and carrots?
Tammy, I want to make this recipe, but I have a question. Did you add all of the beef mixture or part of it? You said to put a big spoonful of the meat mixture on the bottom of pan but it looked like some of the mixture was left out. Do you use all of meat mixture? I'm assuming you did but was a little confused. Thanks.
This video made my day a little better. ❤
Your really good at this thanks
Billy what do you mean you lost the money lol
This looks amazing! I saved it to my recipe playlist
Yellow potatoes for mashed ,russet for baking ❤❤❤
Thank you for the egg tip sometimes my potatoes come out too loose and I would add instant patatoe flakes and never added cheese,but have used sour cream or ranch seasoning to the patatoes for a different taste ❤❤❤
Looks good, but very expensive to make 😢.
I'm literally drooling!😊👍🏻❤❤❤
Tammy, thanks for sharing your amazing recipe! It looks ABSOLUTELY delicious! will be making this very soon! ❤😊
Hey Tammy, Glad to see ya!, I bet that is better than Shepherd's pie…..those onions did it!!!!😋 Girlfriend you wrote those ingredients down PERFECTLY!!!! Thank You!!!😘
I absolutely love that you have so many amazing dishes that use ground beef!! Thank you ❤
Hello, I didn't see any ground beef added until the finished part….

Nice but shepherds pie is made with lamb not beef, hence the name, it's very simular to cottage pie made with beef.

Corn Starch is also a great thickening agent if you can't use flour. 😊
