Description
A delicious twist on a classic comfort food, these Shepard’s Pie Baked Potatoes combine fluffy baked potatoes with a savory meat and veggie filling, topped with creamy mashed potato and melted cheese.
Ingredients
- 4 large potatoes
- 1 pound ground chuck
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 can corn, drained
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon Slap Ya Mama seasoning
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup season blend (chopped onions, bell peppers, and celery)
- 1 teaspoon garlic Parmesan dry seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and dry the potatoes. Pierce each potato several times with a fork. Bake in the preheated oven for 45-60 minutes, or until tender.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground chuck until browned. Drain any excess fat.
- Add the season blend and cook until the vegetables are soft. Stir in the cream of mushroom soup and drained corn. Cook for a few more minutes until heated through.
- Season the meat mixture with salt, pepper, Slap Ya Mama seasoning, and garlic Parmesan dry seasoning. Stir well to combine.
- Once the potatoes are baked, let them cool slightly. Cut each potato in half lengthwise and scoop out some of the flesh, leaving a small border intact. Place the scooped-out flesh in a bowl and mash with butter and heavy whipping cream. Season with salt and pepper.
- Fill each potato half with the meat mixture. Top with the mashed potato mixture and sprinkle shredded cheese over the top.
- Return the filled potatoes to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
- Use Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes for the best texture.
- Feel free to substitute ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option.
- You can add peas or carrots to the filling for extra veggies.
- Adjust seasonings to taste based on spice tolerance.
