INSTRUCTIONS
Make Filling:

- Finish filling: Stir tomato paste into dish. Pour red wine into pan, scraping any browned bits off the bottom. Whisk beef broth and glucomannan well in a large measuring jug, then stir into pan along with all herbs and green beans. Simmer for 4-5 minutes, or until thickened (it will thicken more as it sits). Pour into DEEP 7×11 inch baking dish and set aside to cool.
Make Topping:

Assemble and bake:
- Heat oven to 400°F.
- Spread prepared cauliflower mash over shepherd’s pie filling and top with the remaining cheese. Bake for 20 minutes, or until bubbly. Remove from the oven and let sit on the counter for 5 minutes before serving.
