French Onion Shepherds Pie

So this morning my husband put in his request for dinner. He usually leaves it to me to figure out, so when he makes the decision I get all excited for not having to use valuable brain cells figuring out what's for dinner.
He wanted Shepherds pie, an easy thing to do. Some ground beef, some potatoes and veggies and voila, dinner.
I got a little creative and ended up with a fantastic version!
Enjoy!

1 pkg lean ground beef
1 pkg ground bison (it's good, beleive me!)
chopped garlic to taste (I used about 2 cloves)
1 1/2 cups of French Onion Soup (with the onions strained off if you have a small child with an aversion to peices of onion)
1-2 tbsp cornstarch
1 1/2 cups frozen veggies of choice
6 medium sized potatoes
1/4 cup (or more to taste) of Brie cheese
2 tbsp butter

1) Brown beed, bison and garlic together and drain of extra fat.
2) Peel and cook potatoes. Once cooked, mash potatoes and mix in butter and brie.
3) Strain onion peices from the soup and put into a pot on medium heat. Mix cornstarch with 1/4 cup of water and add to soup. Stir until thickened.
4) Mix onion soup, meat and veggies into the dish you plan on putting into the oven.
5) Top with mashed potatoes
6) Bake for 35 minutes in a 350 degree oven.

Serve yum!
The kid loved it and the manchild had 2 servings before I finished one. Always a good thing.
