This Autumn Shepard’s pie is the perfect weeknight dinner that is so hearty you won’t even know that it’s completely meatless!
Yep, you read that right—no meat! You guys have seen me use Pure Farmland plant based protein staters in a few dishes now, and it’s becoming a staple around here.
You literally just throw it in a pan, season it up, brown it and you have one delicious meatless protein base for any dish!
The flavor is mild and easily takes on the profile of your seasoning of choice—but do you know what sold me? The texture! So many plant based proteins can be mushy, but not Pure Farmland their texture is so meat like you won’t even miss your traditional beef—I promise!
Enjoy, and eat your Hartt out!
