shepards pie <3

Last nite, I made Steakhouse Shepards Pie. Yes, it's a Rachael Ray recipe, but I tweaked it as I went along, to make it my own. It was delicious! We couldn't stop eating it! I followed the recipe carefully. But once I was done, I realized that adding much more bacon and cheese wouldn't have hurt the dish one bit. But we all know that I think adding cheese to anything is good! The recipe called for blue cheese, which I don't like. I happened to have some Havarti in the fridge, and that was yummy too. I'm thinkin that any kind of cheese would be good. So next time I make it, more mushrooms, bacon and cheese. Also, I'm thinkin a combination of different muchrooms would be great as well. For desert I made peanut butter cookies. I was sadly disapointed how they turned out. The recipe didn't call for very much penut butter. The finished product tasted more like sugar cookies with a hint of peanut butter. So, if anyone has a good peanut butter cookie recipe, feel free to float it my way! I found another recipe on-line this morning while I was at work. Yep, the benefits of having the internet at work, hahaha! So,I will be making the new ones tonight, and of course I'll keep you posted. I'm not sure why I have this sudden new obsession for peanut butter cookies, but hey why fight it? :) Plus, I'm always looking for reasons to use my KitchenAid stand mixer! i <3 that thing! ok, it's off to the kitchen I go. Til next time!
