Chicken Shepherd's Pie

"This a fabulous one-pan meal. Serve with a salad and French bread. Just use left over fried, baked, or grilled chicken. You may substitute your family's favorite vegetable in place of corn. Potatoes and roasted garlic can be done 1 to 2 days ahead. If preference is to use dried spices, then use 1/2 teaspoon each of thyme and rosemary. Use any cheese of your choice."

8 potatoes
1/4 cup butter
2/3 cup milk
1 medium head roasted garlic
1 pound cooked, shredded chicken breast meat

1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
1/2 cup red bell pepper, diced
1 cup fresh corn kernels
