How long does it take for Shepherd's pie to cook?!

Everything I put in my Shepherd's Pie is already cooked: leftover mashed potatoes, canned corn, ground beef. Just put it in the oven long enough to heat it - or nuke it first, then put it in the oven to brown the top.
If not using leftovers - go here for a good recipe that takes about 20 min prep then 25 - 30 min in the oven. Cut prep time in half by using instant mashed spuds...

If the meat was already pre-cooked, I'd say 45-50 minutes depending on how you like it. Probably cooked around 350 degrees F. But It probably says it on the box you got it in.

Of course, you cook the meat & potatoes first.
Assemble & bake in 400F oven for 40-60 minutes.
The best indicator is when it bubbles & browns on top.
I cook mine for 25-35mins or until it,s golden brown an crunchie on top.
It should say on the recipe you're following. If the meat is cooked, I'd guess 45 mins. at 350 deg.
I'd say about an hour
