Shepherd's Pie - Yummy and Affordable


I made this for tonight's dinner and put it in the fridge so tonight when it gets close to dinner time, all I have to do is put it in the oven and... ta da! We like to have this with corn bread. Yummy!

1 can green beans
1 can tomato soup
4 cups potatoes
1 lb ground beef
1-2 cups shredded cheese

Brown hamburger and put in casserole dish, then put green beans, and tomato soup in casserole dish and mix together. Add potatoes and top with cheese. Bake @ 350 for 30 minutes or until cooked through.

* I use Idahoan potato packages for the potatoes, Great Value green beans, tomato soup, shredded cheese, and ground beef from Walmart.

The approximate cost to make shepherd's pie, based on the brands I buy, is $8.66. Plus the Jiffy corn muffin mix is 50 cents. We get approximately 5-6 servings out of this recipe, therefore this meal is $1.44 a serving besides the cost of the corn bread. This also reheats well and makes good leftovers.
