Italian Shepherd’s Pies (MSPI Mama)


Italian Shepherd’s Pies (MSPI Mama)
1 lb ground beef
¼-1/2 onion, finely chopped
1 jar marinara sauce
1/8 t salt
1/8 t pepper
1 c all-purpose flour
1 ½ t baking powder
½ t salt
¼ t Italian seasoning
½ c milk (almond worked)
¼ c coconut oil (or butter if you can do dairy)

Brown hamburger with the onion, and drain excess fat. Add the marinara sauce, salt (I omit), and pepper. Cook and stir for 8-10 minutes until thickened. Grease a casserole dish, and spoon the mixture into it. In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and Italian seasoning. Stir in the milk and coconut oil, just until moistened. Spoon dough over meat mixture (It’s hard to spread…if you just drop dumplings it’ll spread out as it cooks) Bake at 450 for 15-20 minutes.
