This recipe was inspired by traditional shepherd' pie which originated in the UK. My version swaps out the meat for lentils and incorporates a variety of vegetables for added nutrition and flavor.
This recipe is a vegan twist on a classic comfort food. It' hearty, satisfying, and packed with plant-based protein and fiber. I love serving it to my non-vegan friends and family to show them how delicious and diverse vegan food can be!
