French Onion Shepherd's Pie image

This hearty casserole has all of the rich flavor of the French onion soup my family loves. The cheese-topped mashed potatoes over the hearty combination of beef and onions make it ideal for an autumn dinner. It doubles and freezes easily, so make one for tonight, and one for the freezer.-Jennifer Beckman, Falls Church, Virginia
