Just another Crazy Monday!!! (Shepherd's Pie)

Another long and crazy day at the Super T...  I got to set some endcaps today..  fun, fun times..   I sort of planned tonight's dinner yesterday while cooking dinner..  making extra mashed potatoes, peas and corn..  so it was simple when I got home to throw this together,  put it in the oven and then be able to sit down..  which on the first day after a weekend off is a mistake because I am so stiff and sore that I can't hardly move once I get still and then try to move again..  stinks getting old..  This is a take on a Tyler Florence recipe..


Shepherd's Pie

Olive oil
1/2 onion, chopped
3 to 4 ribs celery, chopped
3 carrots, diced
1/2 bell pepper, chopped
1 lb ground chicken
green peas(leftover from the night before)
corn(leftover from the night before)
broccoli(leftover from the night before)
3 tbsp tomato paste
1/4 to 1/2 c beef broth(chicken or vegetable can also be used)
Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper
cooked mashed potatoes
Parmesan Cheese

In a large skillet heat the oil, add the onion, celery, carrots and bell pepper and cook about 5 minutes.. add the chicken and cook through, add the peas, corn and broccoli...  stir in the tomato paste, making sure to mix well.. add the broth and Worcestershire sauce.. stir well and let cook for a few minutes.. add salt and pepper to taste..  pour into a 9x13 inch pan..  top with a handful of Parmesan cheese.. top with the mashed potatoes,  spreading out and then top with more Parmesan cheese..  bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes..  serve with a salad and crusty bread..
