Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large skillet, heat avocado oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent.
- Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks.
- Once the beef is cooked, add the diced zucchini, sliced mushrooms, and any other veggies you’re using to the skillet. Sauté until the vegetables are tender and the excess moisture has evaporated. Season with salt, pepper, and any other preferred seasonings.
- While the filling is cooking, prepare the cauliflower mash. Steam or boil the cauliflower florets until they are tender. Drain well and transfer them to a large bowl.
- Mash the cauliflower with a potato masher or fork until smooth. Fold in the shredded mozzarella cheese until well combined.
- Transfer the cooked filling to a baking dish and spread it out evenly.
- Spoon the cauliflower mash over the filling, spreading it out to cover the entire surface.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the cauliflower mash, and then sprinkle paprika on top for color and flavor.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Once done, remove the shepherd’s pie from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes to allow the cauliflower mash to set and thicken.
- Serve hot and enjoy your delicious Keto Shepherd’s Pie with Cauliflower Mash, a comforting and satisfying low-carb meal
