If you’re craving something warm, hearty, and comforting, but still want to keep things on the lighter side, this Low-Carb Sweet Potato Shepherd’s Pie has you covered. Creamy mashed sweet potatoes replace the traditional topping, while Kōloa Spice Rum brings a rich, spiced depth to both the mash and the savory beef filling.
Perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or when you want to impress your family without straying from your low-carb goals. Because who says comfort food can’t be a little tropical, a little health-conscious, and a whole lot delicious!
