Oh Hello, Week.

Happy Monday everyone. Oh sweet sweet coffee, get into my body.

Anyone watch the Golden Globes last night? If so did anyone freak out over Tina Fey’s dress??

Even if it was just for a few seconds ;) .

I had a pretty laid back night last night, which was quite marvelous after a very productive week and weekend. I finished homework, ran errands, and then made myself a fabulous dinner whilst watching the Golden Globes. I’m quite proud of my dinner! It was delicious and I will happily be be eating the leftovers all week.

Drumroll please…

(Sort of) Shepherd’s Pie

photo(214)-2 medium sweet potatoes, chopped

-1/2 cup onion

-1 and 1/2 cups canned peas and carrots (I bought a mixed can of both)

-1 pound lean ground turkey or ground beef

-salt, pepper, garlic powder, cumin to taste

1) Preheat the oven to 425

2) Bake the sweet potatoes for 20-25 minutes

(I hate cooking them in a pan, I always burn them and they take forever, but you could definitely do this if you have a big enough pan for all the ingredients and the patience to cook them all in there)

3) While the potatoes are cooking, put the onions in a non-stick pan over medium heat on the oven and cook for a few minutes, or until they start to turn translucent.

4) Put the ground meat in and cook until no longer pink/red.

5) Add the canned veggies and spices. Cook until everything is heated.

6) Take the potatoes out of the oven and pour the contents of the pan into the baking dish with the potatoes. Mix everything up and enjoy!

So hearty, healthy, comforting and of course delicious. Could I really ask for anything else?

Almost forgot, I watched the first episode of Girl’s second season on Hbo after dinner/watching the Golden Globes.

Seriously that show is too funny. I think Shoshanna is my favorite character, but I’m really just loving them all lately!

Off to class now. cCiao!

  1. Gotta watch Girls still! We don’t have HBO so I need to sneak a free half hour to watch it at the bf’s house sometime soon. I’m obsessed with Shoshanna as well I think she’s hilarious. And I was also freaking out over Tina’s dress I thought she looked absolutely stunning!

  2. Oh that pie looks delicious! Nothing like a nice meal to have leftovers on all week. Also, I love Girls! It’s such a wild show. My roommate and I will definitely be watching last night’s first show tonight. Can’t wait!

  3. I LOVED Tina Fey’s dress from last night, she looked stunning!! I also really love Amy Poehler & thought she looked very pretty too! Glad to hear that Girls show is funny… was curious about it.

    Your shepherd’s pie recipe looks delish!! :)

  4. Gosh, I just love Tina Fey. I was recently reading an article with her an Amy Poehler and they are just great! Inspiring, funny, strong.. not to mention they killed it in Baby Momma haha. Your food looks great, too! I’m always in for anything with sweet potatoes :)

  5. Mmm, I totally have been in the mood for some shepherd’s pie this winter but have been way too lazy to make it- love this spin! I bet TJ’s frozen sweet potatoes would be a good sub too :) And I’ve heard hilarious things about Girl’s but have yet to watch it… Should try to soon!

    • I was TOTALLY thinking of using TJ’s frozen mashed sweet potatoes but didnt have any on hand! I was so sad when I realized I didn’t have any left. And you should totes watch girls, so good.

    • Don’t worry, you aren’t behind on the bandwagon, I just started watching it two weeks ago (I may or may not have finished the entire first season in a day…..ooops…. not my fault! School hadn’t started yet and not all my friends were back :P )
