My version of Sheperd's Pie

I did not feel well but promissed my friend Diana to cook fo her.

So I called her an canceled our meeting today and prommissedher for

tomorrow to come.

Originally found this sheperd's pie recipe @Cook Like James.

This recipe intence beer and heavy cream but I don't like it and

changed this recipe a little. Instead of beer, cream, peas

I used apple juice, milk, green beans, also I used just 1 pound minced
beef but about 1 pound more veggies like carrots, leek and pumkin.
I ♥ it.

Pumkin, Carots, Green Beans

It provides fiber and  vitamin a, vitamin c, bs , calcium,

potassium, iron, b2 , thiamine, β-carotene, dietary fibre,

antioxidants, minerals, lectins and more

Minced Beef must be cooked to 72 °C (160 °F) to ensure that all
bacterial contamination and has from fat also iron, vitamine b1,2,6,12,
zinc, calcium and more

The photos not mine

but as soon as possible I add mine.
