I didn’t want to go shopping yesterday so I made dinner out of what we had in the frig and cupboard, coming up with a sort of Shepperd’s pie. It pulled together quickly and the kid loved it!
You can use fresh mashed potatoes or instant ones prepared according to package directions.

1 tsp dried chives
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp poultry seasoning

Mashed potatoes:
4 servings of mashed potatoes
Add in 1/4 tsp ground black pepper, 1/2 tsp diced dried garlic and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese.

Saute the vegetables in the oil in a non stick pan. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan heat the soup, milk, drained chicken, sour cream, cream cheese and seasonings together over low heat. When the vegetables are browned, add in the sauce and mix to combine.
