Mom made a shepherd's pie last weekend. She asked me to bring the stuff for a big one (my nephew was visiting), using her big casserole dish...so I did: 5lbs hamburg, 5 cans of corn, and 5lbs potatoes. Prep went fine (despite getting the "Mom's eye roll" at the fact I got the stuff at Walmart.)
Then, there was a problem. It was too much for the casserole dish. Like, WAY too much. (As in: just the meat had it 2/3 full.) So, we dug out the gigantic (14x20x3?) lasagna pan...and even that was a tight fit. Just ate one of the (eight) frozen portions I took home. It was really good.
Anyone else with tales of a "wow...that's a lot...now what?!" moment?
