Shepherd' Pie is a classic British dish, traditionally made with lamb or mutton. This vegan version of Shepherd' Pie is a modern adaptation, substituting meat with lentils and vegetables, ensuring that it' packed with protein.
This recipe is inspired by my love for experimenting with traditional dishes. It was on a cold, winter day when I decided to give a vegan twist to a traditional Shepherd' Pie. It turned out to be an absolute hit amongst my vegan friends.
