Why is shepard's pie called pie when it is really a casserole?

Okay - I'll bite. I'm not a stupid person, really I'm not. What's a Shepard's Pie?

It may be a geographical difference or just my ignorance. I'm south of the Mason Dixon line. We do squash casserole and I make a mean Hobo Pie...although it's not a pie either. Sorry.

Isn't shepard's pie basically a casserole dish that has meat, corn, and mashed potatoes? That's how I've had it!

Although yeah, not really of the pie persuasion....

I had my gallbladder ultrasound today and thought I would pass out. She had me hold my breath.... lots of times....too weird.

Anyone know why?

I asked Dh, he is an xray tech. He said it is because as you breathe it moves, they need it still there fore you must hold your breath! :)

Yeah, why is it called Shepherds Pie when it has no shepherds in it?

In the UK Shepherds pie is minced lamb (Ithink you call it ground lamb), topped with mashed potatoes. We also have cottage pie which is minced beef topped with mashed potatoes. Cumberland pie is minced meat, topped with potatoes and then topped with cheese.

These are all no good for bandsters as they are slider foods

In the US, we use beef instead of lamb but still call it Shepherd's Pie.

I really like Shephers pie, It is a pity I must not eat it any more. However my surgeon did say that I could eat slider foods if I went out to a restaurant, in order to avoid any embarassment with PBs

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
