Easy Shepherd's Pie

Prep: 10 min | Total: 30 min | Servings: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 2 cups hot mashed potatoes
  • 4 oz. (1/2 of 8-oz. pkg.) Philadelphia Cream Cheese, cubed
  • 1 cup Kraft Shredded Cheddar Cheese, divided
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
  • 1 cup beef gravy

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Brown meat in large skillet. Drain.
  2. Mix potatoes, cream cheese, 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese and the garlic until well blended.
  3. Stir vegetables and gravy into meat.
  4. Spoon into 9-inch square baking dish.
  5. Cover with potato mixture. Don't worry about it being perfectly even; the more rustic it looks, the better.
  6. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheese. Bake for 20 min. or until heated through.

Notes

Shortcut: Use instant mashed potatoes. Prepare potatoes as directed on package, omitting the milk. This way when you add the cream cheese, the potatoes stay fluffy.
