Recipe by EEYOREASIL "This is an 'Americanized' version of that old standard, Shepherd's Pie. My family loves it! You can prepare your mashed potatoes as you normally would -- adding butter, milk, sour cream, whatever!"

Why this American Shepherd's Pie works for PCOS

Lunch is where most PCOS meal plans either succeed or collapse. A meal like this American Shepherd's Pie that combines adequate protein, fibre-rich carbs, and fat keeps blood sugar stable for the rest of the workday and reduces the late-afternoon energy crash that drives sugar cravings around 3-4pm.
