Potato ham soup, shepherds pie

Potato soup:

An amount of leftover potatoes, I think 3 cups. I used mash and scalloped potatoes

Chicken broth, enough to cover the potatoes

Cooked ham

Chive cream cheese, maybe a cup

Italian seasoning

Garlic powder

Salt and Pepper

Blend everything but the ham into the broth, heat on medium high and chop or tear up the ham and add it. Make sure it's heat through, taste to check the seasonings and serve.

Shepherds pie:

Mashed potatoes

Ground beef, browned

Canned or frozen corn

Frozen peas and carrots

Garlic or garlic powder

Onion soup mix

Beef broth

Cornstarch

Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper

Mix the ground beef with everything but the potatoes, put in bottom of baking dish and spread evenly. Add mashed potatoes on top and spread evenly. Score with fork for texture.

Bake at 350° for maybe 45 minutes to an hour. Check it with a meat thermometer to make sure it's done.
