45 minThis streamlined shepherd’s pie relies on pantry staples like oatmeal and a beef bouillon cube to build flavor fast.
Sautéed vegetables add sweetness while Worcestershire sauce brings savory depth to the simple ground beef base.
A dusting of paprika turns those whipped potatoes golden and gives the dish a hint of smokiness.
Kitchen Tips
- Stir oatmeal into the beef mixture to absorb excess grease and add body to the filling
- Use leftover mashed potatoes for an even quicker weeknight dinner
- A sprinkle of paprika before baking adds color and a subtle sweet-smoky note
