Traditionally shepherd pie is made from lamb (hence shepherd) but since I don't eat red meat, I'm making it with chicken. You can use lamb if you wish. Vegetarian can replace the meat with variety of beans or TVP. You may use dried herbs if you don't have fresh herbs. Mushroom I used comes in a can and is sliced and pre-made in butter sauce
