Vegetarian Shepherds Pie
Peel and slice 8 medium potatos and cook on high in microwave proof dish with 1/2 cup of water for 20 minutes, then mash. (For extra flavour you can replace some potatos with pumpkin).
While this is cooking do the following:
Mix three cans of lentils with 1 cup of tomato paste, tomato soup or your favourite tomato based pasta sauce.
Add 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 1 teaspoon of crushed garlic and 2 teaspoons of basil pesto.
Add one chopped onion.
Add two chopped fresh tomatos.
Spread all ingredients onto a lightly oiled baking tray.
When the mashed potatoes/pumpkin are mashed place these evenly over the top. Sprinkle with olive oil and bake on medium heat for 30 minutes.
This is a wonderful dish to serve with a fresh garden salad.
