Gluten Free (I hope) and Low Carb Shepherds Pie

So I wanted Shepherds Pie, but cause I am trying to stay away from starchy foods, the Potatos were not an option. So I was thinking of this all afternoon and then had the Idea. I made fake mashed potatos before with Cauliflower. Well guess what? I went to the store and got Cauliflower and frozen corn, cause those where the only two things  I did not have.

Fake Mashed Potatos:
Cut the Cauliflower into pieces and boil them till very soft, drain. Add a tbsp of butter and season then use your handmixer and mash them up like you would potatos. Don't add milk, since the Cauliflower is a veggie, it still has some liquid in it.

Meat Filling:
Brown ground beef (I used grass fed, that I got a sprouts the other day), season with what you feel like, I usually trow in some mushrooms and carrots but didn't today. Then make a brown Gravy, I am spoiled I have a sauce my mom brought me from Switzerland it's called "Braten Sauce" and it's from Knorr. But regular Brown Gravy will work.

So then you get a deep oven safe dish, heat oven to 350F, put the meat mixture in, then the bag of frozen corn, then the Caulifower Mash and top it with Cheddar Cheese.
Put in the oven for 30minutes and enjoy.

Both my kids and my husband got seconds. So there something healthy.

Enjoy!!!
