Sweet Potato Crusted Chicken/Mushroom Shepherd's Pie

When we make this we make two, one with chicken and one vegetarian. Each pie serves 4. The recipe is below is for 8. Peas could be easily added as could corn. We selected the vegetables we had in the refrigerator.
For those thinking what about the protein, there is protein in the eggs and vegetables, especially the green beans, a legume. The nutritional information is at the bottom.
