Here is how you make Lentil Shepards Pie:

Peel, cube and cook sweet potato. Once cooked mash till smooth and set aside. (I do not add anything to these but you could add a bit of butter and salt and pepper but you will need to increase the calories in doing so)In a medium pot combine lentils and water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cook till lentils are tender about 15 minutes.Thaw the peas and corn and set aside.Once lentils are cooked and most of the water is gone combine the vegetable broth, cornstarch, sage, thyme, salt and pepper. Add this to lentils on medium low heat and cook stiring till thickened. (You may need to add more cornstarch - disolve in cold water than add to lentils if needed)Once lentils are done and the broth has thickened it is time to assemble. In a medium casserole dish ( about 8 x 10) pour lentils, than peas and corn and top with the mashed sweet potato.Bake in the oven at 425 for about 25 minutes.
