I just throw together whatever we have and throw some mashed potatoes on top of it.

I have left over roast beef to use up so I thought I'd do a shepherds pie.

Just went food shopping this am...lots of options to choose from as I did my big meat order. Let's see I've got two beautiful sirloin steaks, hot & sweet sausage, a Perdue stuffer chicken, boneless breasts, ground beef, a nice ham and some store made meatballs. Too many to choose from.

Right now (for lunch), I'm eating roast beef hash, fried potatoes, & baked beans. YUM!! Made some for my father yesterday & took it into the nursing home for him. Brought the leftovers to work for lunch.
