Last night was a clean-out-the-fridge night, so I wouldn’t waste money by letting meat and produce sit badly on the shelf. So when I found sweet potatoes, zucchini, squash, and bulk Cajun sausage, it seemed like the perfect time to finally try a shepherd’s pie. The result was this Cajun sweet potato shepherd’s pie that’s so delicious, and I’ve already added the ingredients to my grocery list to make it again!

Want to use this recipe for meatless Monday? Replace the sausage with a can of drained black beans. Now you’ve got a hearty vegan dinner!

Experiment with different veggies. Mushrooms, tomatoes, or eggplant would all be super tasty in this. Or trade out the sweet potatoes for roasted and mashed butternut squash. The possibilities are endless! Have fun and make it your own.

Click through for the recipe for this super healthy and veggie-packed casserole. I promise you won’t be disappointed!

Don’t be afraid to make a big batch. I think this dish tastes even better today than it did yesterday! This cajun sweet potato shepherd’s pie microwaves perfectly.

Check back soon! Next time I’ll give you the recipe for the spiced blueberry applesauce I made for dessert.
