This was my mom's recipe for shepherd's pie. She never really held with using a lot of herbs and spices (I think she only ever kept paprika, garlic salt, and onion salt in the house), so it's simple, and it's sweet, and goodness knows this can be improvised upon heavily. Try adding some tabasco sauce for some zing!
