Really good base recipe for cottage pie, but made exactly as the recipe states it is SO BLAND. So add LOTS of spices! The few it calls for are woefully inadequate. I added lots of everything - garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, parsley, cayenne, black pepper, some Cajun seasoning and even a little bit of ground mustard and it turned out beautifully. I also spiced up the potatoes.
