I can't afford lamb, so I can't afford to make Shepherd's Pie (Shepherds of sheep/lamb) but I can afford beef so I can make Cottage Pie - the beef version of Shepherds Pie. So thanks for this recipe.

This looks like something my Husband would actually be excited to eat. Were just on our 2nd week of MF.
Question though, do you think I could sub Eggbeaters for the eggs and it would still work well?

WHAT ABOUT THE PACKET OF GRAVY? I WANT TO MAKE THIS DO NOT HAVE THE MEDIFAST GRAVY, CAN I SUBSTITUTE SOMETHING ELSE, / I AM ON MY THIRD WEEK AND YOUR RECIPES, ARE REALLY DOABLE AND LOOK GOOD.THANK YOU, COS A LITTLE BOREDOM SETS IN WITH THE BASIC PACKETS. ONE THING I FOUND TO HELP IN THE SOUPS AND STEW, IS USE ALITTLE DEHYDRATED GARLIC AND ONION TO PERK UP THE FLAVORS

This dish was fantastic!!!!!! My husband slurped it up!!!! (and he can be a very picky eater!!) My husband and I have been on the program for about 8 months and I have have tried a number of Cody Jo's recipe's. This one is definitely another winner!!! Together we have lost around 150 lbs., and it is recipes like this that help us stay on the program!!! I don't have any Corningware baking dishes, so I simply used small aluminum foil loaf pans, 1 3/4 cup capacity. They worked beautifully!!

I keep counting the lean in this recipe and only come up to 4, but you divide into six dishes. What am I missing. 1 for beef, 2 for the eggs and 1 for the cheese.
