     Title: Savory Shepherd's Pie, Revised
Categories: Casseroles, Vegetarian, Mash, Favorites, Meal pies
     Yield: 4 servings

     5    Potatoes, peel, boil
     3 cl Garlic, minced
   1/2 t  Dried basil, crushed
     2 T  Butter
   1/4 t  Salt
          Milk for mashed potatoes
     1 md Onion, chpd
     2 md Carrot, sliced
    15 oz Cn red kidney beans,
          -rinsed, drained
14 1/2 oz Cn whole tomatoes, cut up
    10 oz Corn
     8 oz Cn tomato sauce
     1 t  Worcestershire sauce
   1/2 t  Sugar
     1 c  Cheddar cheese, shredded

 In a small saucepan cook garlic and dried basil in
 butter 15 secs. Add to mashed potatoes along with
 salt. Gradually beat in enough milk to make light and
 fluffy.  Set aside. For filling, in a medium saucepan
 cook onion and carrot in hot oil until onion is tender
 but not brown.  Stir in kidney beans, tomatoes and
 their juice, corn, tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce,
 and sugar. Heat until bubbly.
 Transfer vegetable mixture to an 8x8x2" square baking
 pan.  Spread mashed potatoes over top. Sprinkle with
 cheddar cheese. Bake, uncovered, in a 375F oven 10
 minutes or until heated through and cheese begins to
 brown.

 This is really very good.  I'd like to cut back on the
 beans and maybe add TVP(R) with it or even (gasp) tofu.
 I changed the recipe a bit, especially where the
 tomatoes were concerned. I was supposed to drain them
 but didn't.
