Introducing our first recipe in our series showcasing meals you can create using canned food items from the food bank. Today, we’re sharing a delicious and hearty Shepherd’s Pie recipe contributed by Carly and Danny Oberdries!
Shepherd’s Pie Recipe:
π₯« 2 tins of steak or mince π₯« 1 tin of carrots π₯« 1 tin of peas π₯« 1 large tin of potatoes π₯« Oxo cube (if possible)
- Combine the steak, peas, and carrots in a pan. Add the Oxo cube for extra flavor.
- Boil the new potatoes until nearly all the water has evaporated. Mash them with a knob of butter or a splash of milk.
- Put the meat and veggie mixture in a baking dish, then layer the mashed potatoes on top.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until the mashed potatoes turn golden brown.
To make this dish even more filling, consider adding a tin of baked beans. Simply rinse the beans under cold water to remove the sauce, drain, and mix them in with the meat and veggies before adding the mashed potatoes.
