This month the Recipe ReDux Challenge is all about Pie Love ❣
Tucked in a crust, nothing says love from the oven like pie. Whether it’s a twist on the all-American apple pie or a traditional recipe from your home country, give a healthy makeover to your favorite savory or sweet pie recipe.
I chose to remake a heart-stopper classic. Shepherd’s Pie.
There are many healthy ways to make a meat and vegetable pie. You can cut back on the fat in the crust. a leaner meat or no meat would switch it up from classic hamburger.
I thought I’d use mushrooms instead of meat, skip the buttery mashed topping and thick gravy.
Mushrooms add texture, reduce saturated fat and sodium content per burger. They are the only source of vitamin D in the produce aisle that is non-fortified. Mushrooms are the leading source of the essential antioxidant selenium, which protects body cells from damage that might lead to chronic diseases. Mushrooms also help to strengthen the immune system.
Baby Lima beans, red-skinned potatoes, corn, celery and onion comprised the filling. Add some thyme, chives, salt and pepper to taste. A bit of water made a nice broth. Place the cooked vegetables in the crust. A sprinkle of cornstarch will thicken it as it cooks.
Arrange thin slices of red potato and mushrooms on top. Brush with olive oil.
Bake at 350 for approximately 30 minutes until crust in done and potatoes are tender. Cool a few minutes before cutting.
This is definitely not your Mother’s Shepherd’s Pie.

Its summertime! I thought summer weather would never get here. Early spring here in the Northeast was still a bit cool. Now the heat is catching up to the calendar!
Throw open the windows and air out the stuffiness leftover from winter. I’m ready for the long days. More time to spend outside.
My first summer ritual is going barefoot. I love the feel of cool grass under my feet. Taking in the sunshine and enjoying a cool breeze as it passes by.
I have most of the summer off from work. That doesn’t mean I get bored. I make sure to have time to garden and hike the trails.
One way I do that is to break the bond to my oven. Time to get out the grill and start cooking! Grilling delivers intense flavor in a minimal amount of time.
Can we share a little #grilltalk between friends?
Does grilling your entire meal appeal to you? Maybe you’re more of a steak and potatoes kind of grill lover.
There are times when I can go for a grilled steak, baked potato and some fire-roasted corn on the cob.
Other times a steak salad sounds like a great idea.
Either way, it’s the meat that makes the meal.
Have you ever tried Certified Angus Beef ® brand?
If you are looking for an exceptional steak or burger experience, trust Certified Angus Beef ® brand.
Only 1 in 4 Angus cattle meets the brand’s high standards. Certified Angus Beef ® brand was founded in 1978 by members of the American Angus Association. It’s on an entirely different level. It defines the standard by which all beef is measured. No shortcuts and with a virtual obsession with flavor and juiciness.
According to the https://www.certifiedangusbeef.com/ website, this group of farmers who, in the 1970s, got together and said collectively, “We can do better. We can produce beef that’s extremely tender, juicier and always packed with flavor.”
They then proceeded to set the standards that have become the true mark of quality of an Angus brand. The Certified Angus Beef ® brand.
What makes Certified Angus Beef ® brand different from other Angus beef on the market?
The Certified Angus Beef ® brand has 10 exacting standards that every cut must meet for unrivaled flavor, juiciness and tenderness. These standards assure consumers of the best Angus beef available.
Modest or higher marbling – for the taste that ensures customer satisfaction
Medium or fine marbling texture – the white “flecks of flavor” in the beef that ensure consistent flavor and juiciness in every bite
Learn more about these 10 exacting standards, here .
Like those diamond marks on steaks? Here is a video that shows you how.
I’ve found that by using a Caesar based rub on the steaks adds another layer of great garlicky Caesar flavor!
Double dipping the onion rings makes them so crunchy!
Don’t forget to rest your steak for a few minutes before slicing.
