Yellow wax beans and peas shepherd’s pie

The winter is officially here. Eventhough the temperatures have not decreased yet, it has been rainy week and it is forecasted a wet weekend too. Since we ain’t going to leave the house apparently, I thought to make a warm casserole for our saturday lunch. I have tried this dish a few weeks before and i have to say that may family has enjoyed it, plus it gets ready in less than an hour so mom is happy too 😂.

I have used yellow wax beans (because I had some in the fridge), but you can use green beans too if you prefer.
