I am a fan of the classic Shepherd's Pie, we had it a lot growing up. It is a great way to feed a large family with out breaking the bank. I love the combination of the juicy Shepherd's Pie mixture stuffed into a flavorful bell pepper and then topped off with creamy mashed potatoes and melted cheddar cheese. One of the best ways to showcase peppers is stuffing them.

I recently purchased a whole lamb from a local rancher (A Land of Grass) and the Baby boy has been begging for Shepherd's Pie. That's when it hit me, make Shepherd's pie, stuff it into a pepper and top them with the mashed potatoes. Really, why didn't I think of that before? Spoon an equal amount of the mixture into each hollowed pepper. Mix the remaining tomato sauce and Italian seasoning in a bowl, and pour over the stuffed peppers.
