Clean Eating Lentil Shepherds Pie

29th September 2017 By The Kitchen Shed Leave a Comment

Get ready for World Vegetarian Day this Sunday 1st October with a delicious, hearty and super healthy Clean Eating Lentil Shepherds Pie.

You know how much I love lentils, I could quite happily eat them every day. I add them to everything and anything and my family think I’m crazy for it. Apart from my 9 year old, the rest of the family would much prefer life without lentils and I did wonder how this meal would go down but it was actually a huge success and besides my 5 year olds ‘It’s not as good as pizza’ comment, everyone seemed to enjoy it just as much as I did.

This is a perfect meal to share with the family on Meat Free Monday and a great way to enjoy some real vegetarian comfort food. To save time whilst cooking, it is perfectly ok to serve this without baking it in the oven once cooked. You could also swap the sweet potato mash for white potatoes, swede and carrot mash or serve it with wholegrain rice or quinoa.
