Easy Shepherd's Pie

I found this recipe online and it sounds like something I need to try. I may make a few adjustments the first time I make it. *thinking*

Easy Shepherd's Pie

1 1/2 lb. ground beef or chicken
1 can Italian tomato paste
1-2 cans kitchen cut green beans
1 can sliced mushrooms
1 C. shredded cheese of your choice
Mashed potatoes to cover recipe


Cook meat until done. Add tomato paste and stir to combine. Put meat mixture in bottom of a large pie plate or deep casserole dish. Layer green beans, mushrooms, then cheese. Cover to the edge with the mashed potatoes leaving a hole in the center for a vent. Heat in a 350-degree oven until bubbly. Remove from oven, and let stand for 10-15 minutes.
