Shepherd's pie is a one-dish wonder that Americans adopted and made their own, swapping lamb for ground beef in what's technically a cottage pie. At just 110 kcal per 100g, it's remarkably filling thanks to the mashed potato topping and savory meat-and-vegetable base. You get 6.5g of protein, vitamin A (95mcg) from the carrots and peas, and iron (1.1mg) from the beef. The 10g of carbs come from the golden potato crust that gets irresistibly crispy under the broiler. It's a fantastic make-ahead meal — assemble it the night before and bake it fresh. Leftovers reheat perfectly for lunch the next day.
