This easy Vegetarian Shepherd’s Pie recipe makes a great dish for vegetarians and a lighter meatless alternative for carnivores. It is packed with goodness in the form of beans, vegetables, and herbs and a delicious sweet potato topping.

Shepherd's Pie is usually made with minced/ground lamb ( Cottage Pie is made using minced beef) and that meat has been replaced in this dish with a mixture of beans - you choose your favourites - to provide protein, herbs for flavour and tomatoes for added goodness. The dish is a complete meal in itself needing little else for serving but if you feel something is needed, crusty bread or a crisp green salad is a great accompaniment.

If you have leftover Vegetarian Shepherd's Pie, it freezes really well.
