Vegan Shepherd’s Pie
This cheap and wholesome meal takes around 1 hour to prepare and can easily feed a hungry family. I have used cashew milk in this recipe made with Loving Earth’s Really Raw Cashews. Nut milk is a great alternative to soy or cow’s milk! The video below will take you through the process step by step.
