The shepherd's pie was much the same as last time[@rev] except we used purple majesty potatoes giving it the really cool (or strange) look you see. It was pretty good. I think it tasted better last time though. It was also a pretty easy meal. Just brown onions, beef, peas and corn and then top with mashed potatoes. Meredith did the potatoes so I do not know what exactly it was but there was the usual including greek yogurt, a bit of fake butter, and other stuff. The whole thing made over four servings.
The soup was also very good. We used a part of a sugar pumpkin (looks like a huge butternut squash). I also used a new chicken stock called Better Than Bouillon. I think I agree that it is better but it is also a bit expensive so we will try it again but may not make it our normal. I added all kinds of spices and on Meredith's suggestion, some grated parmesan cheese. The cheese was actually a nice addition.
Points for the entire shepherd's pie (over 4 servings)
Beef (11 oz, very lean)...11
Potatoes (~1 1/3 poind)...7
extra stuff in potatoes...2 or 3
