Shepherd's Pie with Cauliflower Mash

Common throughout the United Kingdom, shepherd’s pie was originally devised as a way to use up leftover meat. Now a delicious dish in its own right, I’ve re-worked this versatile recipe with a creamy and cheesy cauliflower topping to replace the traditional potato mash. Despite its humble appearance, cauliflower boasts an impressive nutritional profile. High in fiber to improve digestive health, rich in antioxidants shown to protect against cancer, and containing sulforaphane which is protective against inflammation as well as helping reduce high blood pressure, cauliflower is a no-brainer to add to your weekly recipe rotation. For a vegetarian version of this recipe, swap in cooked brown lentils for the ground meat.
