Back in the first week or so of August, fellow blogger and dear sister-in-Christ Catherine Case Blevins, posted a recipe for "Easy Shepherd's Pie" to her blog (http://oldspillhouse.blogspot.com). I tried it yesterday (adding only a couple of pinches of Herbs du Provence on top of the Dinty's Beef Stew before I put on the mashed potatoes, and this one's a winner! I decided to include it here because, as Catherine said, it's hot and super-easy and it's good!

Easy Shephard's Pie Recipe
It's always nice to have some quick, easy recipes up your sleeve that will produce a hot meal on short notice. This is a new one for us and almost everyone around here will eat it :) Imagine!
If you have some similarly simple and fast recipes, please share! We'll be getting busier around here pretty soon with school starting and a few extracurricular activities this year and the easier dinner can be, the better!
Enjoy!
Easy Shephard's Pie
1 (40 oz.) can DINTY MOORE Beef Stew
1 (24 oz.) package refrigerated mashed potatoes (any flavor) or you can make instant mashed potatoes for 6 people
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place beef stew in an 11x7-inch baking dish. [I added the herb blend of Herbes du Provence at this point. EGH] Spoon mashed potatoes over stew. Place baking dish on a cookie sheet. Bake, uncovered, for 30-35 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Top pie with cheese during the last 5 minutes of baking. Serves 8.
