Shepherd's/Cottage pie (I can never remember which one if the 'beef' one lol)

Easy to remember...
Shepherds' pie is lamb (because what do Shepherds do? Look after sheep. And presumably eat a lot of them too)
Cottage pie is usually beef. So named because cattle live in cottages

San Choi Bow is a favourite here .. yummy!

Shepherd's/Cottage pie (I can never remember which one if the 'beef' one lol)

Shepherds look after sheep - lamb mince is shepherds pie so beef mince is cottage pie.

Shepherds look after sheep - lamb mince is shepherds pie so beef mince is cottage pie.

You missed my funny joke Winter *pouts*

I'm making shepherds pie tonight with the mince I have. Make it all up in a big batch of savoury mince using the vege you have and then use some for the shepherds/cottage pie if you go with that option then freeze the rest in smaller batches as it will make great fillings for sloppy joes (reheated and put in a bread roll) if you want a quick and casual lunch or dinner.

Homemade hamburgers? Meatballs.

Here's one of my most-used mince recipes (outside of lasagna, which is #1 *drool*) The kids love it, too. I got the recipe about 15 years ago from a crepe party, tho I have never actually used it for serving with crepes....

about 500g mince
1 onion, diced
3-4 rashers bacon, diced
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 can tomato soup
1 can 4 bean mix
Pasta (shells, spirals etc) to serve with

Fry mince, onion and bacon until mince is just browned through. Add tomato soup and brown sugar. Simmer for 10-15 mins. Add beans and lower heat right down to a slow simmer until beans are heated (5 mins or so). Eat. Yum.

Can also add some green capsicum if you like it when frying the first few ingredients.

cottage pie is made with fresh mince - shepherds pie with left over roast meat (just a useless little fact!)

meatloaf/rissoles
savoury mince (with noodles or pasta)
a bolognaise type sauce made into lasagne/pasta bake
pie (if you have pastry)
burritos/tacos
sausage rolls (we make a meatloaf and cook half the mix as meatloaf, half as sausage rolls - with onion, carrot, capsicum etc)
bolognaise roll (basic bolognaise meat mix, rolled in puff pastry, baked, then sliced - recipe often on pampus puff pastry packs)
