- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons thyme, chopped
- 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons onion powder

- 2 cups mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup cheddar cheese
- 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese
- 1 large egg, beaten
Instructions:
- Preheat oven: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cook noodles: Cook Reames Frozen Egg Noodles al dente according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
- Make filling: In a large oven-proof skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add leeks, onions, and carrots. Cook until softened, 5-7 minutes.
- Add herbs and spices: Stir in thyme, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2 minutes.
- Make sauce: Add chicken stock and milk. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, 3-5 minutes.

- Assemble shepherd's pie: Turn mixture into a prepared baking dish. Top with remaining 1 cup mozzarella cheese.
- Bake: Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly. For a browned cheese topping, broil on high for the last 3 minutes.
Optional additions:
- For extra flavor: Add a pinch of nutmeg or allspice to the filling.
- For a richer flavor: Use heavy cream instead of milk.
- For a spicier flavor: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the filling.
