Almost Paleo Sheppard's Pie

I say almost b/c the dairy and legumes (green beans and peas in this recipe) are not that great for the gut (meaning the digestive system) but in my humble opinion the quantity is not enough to worry about. So on with the recipe....this is good!



1 LB grass fed ground beef
2 cauliflower heads
4 shallots
1 clove garlic
1 can green beans (organic)
1 cup of organic frozen peas
1 box of beef broth
1/2 stick butter
1/3 cup goats milk
salt
pepper
cumin



In a large skillet add some olive oil let the pan heat up for a min add diced up shallots let them cook for 3 min add diced garlic clove add the ground beef add some cumin add some salt add some pepper let the meat cook until almost brown add the cup of peas add the can of green beans add the two cups of beef broth

Let it simmer on low for about 30min or until most of the water has evaporated leaving a little liquid left on the skillet
Pre-heat oven at 350 degrees

Meanwhile prepare the cauliflower mashers (which replaces the potatoes that are in a traditional recipe)

Cut up the cauliflower into small pieces place it Pyrex heating dish, add two cups of water , put some saran wrap over it and place in microwave for 8 minutes, remove saran wrap add 1/2 stick butter and 1/3 cup goats milk using a masher mash the pieces into they look like mashed potatoes. set aside


Take the contents of the skillet and put into a large Pyrex cooking pan (square 8X12)
Add the cauliflower mashed mixture on top
Use a spatula to cover the meat with the mashers

Put into oven and cook (@ 350 Degrees) for 25min

The top of the cauliflower mashers should be crisp
Take out of the oven and let cool for 5min

Serve and enjoy!
