My version of individual Shepherds Pie.
• Ground Lamb and Veal mixture with fresh onions and garlic
• Garlic Mashed baby red potatoes
Topped with homemade breadcrumbs and shredded Gouda/Cheddar mix. Plated with a Blueberry/Mango gastrique
I bake them in the deep muffin tins, that’s how they get the shape
My dad is 72 today. In his lifetime he has taught ballroom dancing, got accepted into West Point but family convinced him not to go, won a full scholarship for singing, offered a job in the NSA but also didn’t take it, was one of two chosen in BMT during Vietnam to do intel for the frontlines from Okinawa, was a DJ for a very popular radio show, quit his job and became a full time caretaker of my Nana with Alzheimer’s when his two other siblings wouldn’t, couldn’t find a job when he had to put her somewhere and become “the truck guy” and unloads trucks at 72, and most importantly RAISED ME BY HIMSELF! And yes that’s a run on sentence but I don’t care 🤣 Happy Birthday to “Me Ole Geezard” ❤️
