Shepard's Pie

The weather is turning a little cooler now, so it's a great time to start cooking old time favorites that warm you up after being outdoors.  One of my favorites is shepard's pie:

Ingredients-

6-8 medium to large size potatoes
2 lbs. ground meat (turkey, beef, bison, or lamb)
2 cans of cream of mushroom soup
1 vidalia onion
1 can of sweet corn
I can of creamed corn
olive or walnut oil
salted butter
milk
salt to taste

Directions- 

Peel and quarter potatoes, and boil until soft.  Drain, put back in pot, and add one and a half sticks of salted butter, sliced up.  Allow butter to melt.  Mash potatoes with potato masher and add milk.  Use electric mixer, and add more milk as needed.  Add salt to taste.

While potatoes are cooking, dice onion and carmelize in frying pan with oil.  Remove from pan.  Brown ground meat until fully cooked, then drain. 

Put drained meat in a small roasting pan.  Mix in the cans of mushroom soup.  Spread meat to cover bottom of the pan.  Next add the can of sweet corn, and then the creamed corn on top.  Top with the mashed potaotes.  You can add extra butter on top of potatoes if you like, and sprinkle with paprika.  Bake in the oven uncovered on the center rack at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes.  Serve with a side vegetable.
