Yields10 Pie Cups
Preparation Time10 min
Cooking Time45 min
Ingredients
- 1 can Phillsbury biscuits (8-10 biscuits)
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil
- (1-pound) lean ground beef (ground turkey, chicken or vegetable crumbles)
- 1 small onion, finely diced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup beef broth (or chicken broth/vegetable broth if using turkey/chicken or vegetables)
- 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables
-
Preheat oven to 425°F.
-
Coat a 12-count muffin pan or 2 6-count muffin pans with oil or cooking spray. Stretch the biscuits and mold to the shape of each muffin cup. Smash them down with the back of a spoon. Bake the biscuits for 6 to 8 minutes, or until light golden. Remove from oven and set aside.
-
In the meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and brown. Stir in the onions, salt, pepper and garlic and allow to cook together for 5-7 minutes or until the beef is no longer pink, stir often.
-
Mix flour into the meat mixture and stir until the mixture is thickened. Add beef broth and stir in vegetables and herbs. Cook until the veggies are tender, about 5 minutes.
-
Reheat mashed potatoes in a microwave for 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in granulated garlic and onion powder.
-
Spoon approximately 2 tablespoons of warm potatoes on the bottoms of one biscuit; top with approximately 2 tablespoons of the beef mixture; finally top with a handful of cheddar cheese. Repeat with the rest of the biscuits.

Hmm, well I was pretty excited to see this recipe when I saw the name but now I'm just confused. I mean, I get that you can use a variety of different meats to your liking for this recipe...but cheese on shepherd pie? There also seems to be some missing ingredients...like the potatoes. The concept of this recipe is fun and innovative but it definitely needs a little tweaking.
