Shepherd's Pie

2 cups Thrive ground beef

1/4 cup Thrive onions
2 TB Thrive tomato powder
1/4- 1/2 cup water
1 Tsp chili powder
1 cup Thrive corn
1 cup Thrive green peas
2 cups water
1 cup Thrive potato beads
1/2 cup reconstituted Thrive instant milk 
2 TB butter
1 cup  Thrive shredded cheddar cheese

Place cheese on shallow plate.  Cover with water. Let sit for 10-15 minutes.

The pictures show a half recipe-

Meanwhile back at the ranch.....

Combine beef and onion.  Cover with water.  Let set a few minutes.  Place in skillet.  Add tomato powder and chili powder.  Add 1/4 - 1/2 cup of water - just enough to make a little sauce

Place corn and pea in separate bowls.  Cover with water- let sit until rehydrated.  Sometimes I help this process go quicker by microwaving for a few minutes.

Put your meat mixture in a baking dish.

Cover meat with rehydrated vegetables

Check on your cheese.  If it is soft, pour off extra water, strain.  I sometimes will soak up extra liquid with a paper towel if necessary.  Put aside.

Make your potato beads.  Heat 2 cups of water to boiling.  Add milk and butter.  Add potato beads - stirring constantly.  Add beads slowly until you get desired consistancy.

Place potatoes on top of veggies

    

Cover with Cheese

Put in oven at 350 for about half an hour or until it is bubbling!


Prepare to enjoy!
