Paleo Shepherd’s Pie
Paleo Shepherd’s Pie Ah, Shepherd’s Pie. Shepherd’s Pie, also known as Cottage Pie, is traditionally an English dish made with lamb or mutton and topped with potatoes.

If you are like us and LOVE spices and tons of flavor, experiment and add more! This dish looks really complicated, but I assure you, it is not. This really is a Paleo comfort food! It is still cold here in Montana and this dish really hit the spot for…

I made it and the whole meal took MAYBE 10-15 minutes to prepare and…
