Leftovers don't have to be boring. This shepherd's pie is a tasty way to take your roast beef from drab to fab in no time at all.

1 large onion, quartered and sliced
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
2 cups finely diced leftover roast beef
2 cups brown or beef gravy, leftover or prepared from mix
1/2 cup sliced or diced cooked carrots
1 cup frozen peas, cooked
salt and pepper, to taste
1 egg yolk
2 cups leftover mashed potatoes
Melt butter in a heavy skillet over medium heat, and add onions. Saute onions until tender, then add diced beef, gravy, carrots, and peas. Heat through and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer to baking dish.
Beat the egg yolk into potatoes and spoon potatoes over the shepherd's pie meat and vegetables (press potatoes through a pastry tube, if desired).
Bake shepherd's pie at 400 degrees F for about 30 minutes, or until mashed potatoes are browned and gravy is bubbling.
