Delicious Beef Pie with Cheesy Cauliflower Topping Recipe is Ready in Just 30 Minutes
This quick-prep twist on Shepherd’s Pie is a delectable weeknight dinner winner
There’s nothing cozier or more delicious than baking up a good chicken pot pie or Shepherd’s pie. But during the week, it can be a challenge to find the time to pull a yummy dish like that together. We asked our test kitchen for some help with the dilemma and they came up with this amazing beef pie with cheesy cauliflower topping recipe. Not only is it hearty and delicious, it’s also a snap to make. And it’s fast, too! You’ll have this dinner done from start to finish in just half an hour. The secret: Convenient frozen and canned veggies. Not only are they just as healthy as fresh vegetables, they save you valuable prep time. And they pair beautifully with the juicy boneless beef sirloin that cooks up tender and full of flavor.
We top the pie with cauliflower and cheese, which bakes up into a delightful “crust” that’s golden brown and bursting with cheesy goodness. Watch our video to see how simple this dish is to prepare —and then be inspired to give it a try!
