Pioneer Woman Shepherd's Pie Recipe

Pioneer Woman's Shepherd's Pie recipe is a lifesaver on busy weeknights! It's surprisingly simple to put together, and the flavors are incredible.
The key is to use good quality ground meat and fresh vegetables. You can definitely use frozen vegetables, but I find that the flavor is much better when you use fresh.
Don't forget to sprinkle some shredded cheese on top before baking for an extra layer of goodness.
This recipe is perfect for chilly evenings, family gatherings, or whenever you crave a hearty, comforting meal.
