The Irish-Maryland Shephards' Pie for NYE

Welcome 2016!!!
New Years Eve was a 'night-in' for us with family, a Party-At-Home situation...and a perfect time to have a winter dish, with a Maryland Twist! Many folks wanted the recipe from me on this one, and I'll include the simple version: Make mashed potato your favorite way and then add a bunch of cream cheese and Irish shredded cheese (like Dublin Cheese) and garlic if you want.  Let that be the topping of your meat pie, or veggie pie and put a nice layer of Old Bay on it when you spread it over the top of the 'Pie Inside' : Carrots and Peas, and ground lamb (or chopped, or shredded turkey, bison, beef, or whatever your choice.  We did bite size cuts of lamb with rosemary, cinnamon, garlic and mint mixed with little frozen peas, carrots and corn for this one.  Add the Old Bay Seasoning.  Bake it for 45 min or whenever it all gets yummy together!
