october 19 mock shepherds pie

The weather is getting colder here and it is time for cozy comfort foods that require the oven. Those are my favorite kind of foods.
Today we had mock shepherds pie, because I really know how to rock those soy meatballs in inventive ways. ;) The meatballs were simmered in a homemade onion gravy and then combined with mixed vegetables, put into a casserole, and topped with garlic mashed potatoes and lots of black pepper before being baked in the oven til the top is slightly browned.
