Buffalo Shepherd's Pie

I created a new recipe tonight that came out so Yummy I added it to my RECIPE page on the website!

Organic Buffalo Shepherd's Pie



1 lb ground Buffalo (or grass-fed Hamburg from a "happy cow")
1 chopped organic onion
1 chopped organic pepper (optional)
1 chopped organic carrot (optional)
5 chopped organic garlic cloves
1 eight oz. carton cream of mushroom soup-organic (or canned)
1 bag organic frozen corn (or 2 cans)
3-4 handfuls organic shredded cheddar cheese
5 small organic red potatoes-slice 1/4 inch (or fewer large ones)
organic spices: parsley, thyme, onion powder,pepper, sea salt (whatever you like)

In casserole dish, saute onion, pepper, carrot and garlic in olive oil until slightly tender. Add ground buffalo plus 1/2 of seasonings and saute everything together until buffalo is browned. Add cream of mushroom soup, stir. Layer the frozen corn on top of the meat & veggie mixture. Then layer the potatoes on top of the corn neatly so they cook evenly. Sprinkle the rest of the seasonings on top of the potatoes. Cover and cook for 1 hour or until the potatoes are done. Remove from oven, take off lid and put under the broiler for a few minutes to brown the top of the potatoes. When the potatoes are brown, sprinkle the cheddar cheese on top and let that broil until the cheese bubbles and is slightly browned.

Serve with a fresh tossed salad......mmmmmmm


I like to feed my family buffalo instead of hamburg because the buffalo are free ranged and are able to live a healthier life...which must make them "happier" and I'd rather be part of happy farming :)
