Cottage pie in black oval staub casserole

Cottage Pie

Penny Kovacs
Whether you call it Cottage Pie or Shepherd's Pie there is one thing we can all agree on is that this dish is a big ole hug in a bowl! Traditionally, Shepherd's Pie is made with lamb and cottage pie is made with beef but you can use ground chicken or turkey as well! This dish brings me back to childhood and now I make this healthier version loaded with veggies, bone broth and melted ghee on top of the mashed potatoes. This is one you will be making over and over again!
