An Irish menu staple, shepherd's pie is a savory dish that combines beefy stew, veggies, and mashed potatoes into an easy one-pan meal. Our version of this comfort food classic was inspired by The Real Food Dietitians and features ground bison, which is rich in protein, vitamin B-12, and omega-3 fatty acids. This scrumptious savory pie is topped with sweet potatoes and packed with Whole30-Approved ingredients.
