Lazy day cheesy topped cottage pie

With Turkey mince



🥔 Lazy day Turkey Cottage pie 🥔


- as we were talking about it in last nights live …


Do you #batchcook for the freezer , and get organised for week / month ahead ?


Well I’ve got cooking for the new month coming, to try and keep as focused as possible ,by making some family friendly meals that I can have too ( if I wish ) but it means I’ve got healthy food for freezer for the Hubster, so he can get out and eat while I concentrate on my food intake.


So , I made this yesterday ,to portion it up & freeze


500g @sainsburys lean turkey breast mince (550 calories & 1.5g carbs)

Spray olive oil @frylighthq

1 medium onion, chopped (55 calories & 10.8g carbs)

3 cloves garlic chopped (39 calories & 6g carbs)

pinch of seasoning

2 x handfuls frozen veg

20g grated @eatlean cheese (for top)

400ml chicken or beef stock, ( I used beef to give it some depth )made from 1 low-sodium stock cube (12 calories & 1.35 g carbs) - and added a tbsp ofgravy granuals to thicken - I was being very lazy !)


Filling-


Heat a large non-stick frying pan and dry-fry the turkey mince until browned. Tip onto a plate and set aside.


Add the oil and gently cook the onion, & garlic until softened, about 10 mins (add a splash of water if it starts to stick). Add the meat for a few mins.


Add the veg and stock ( gravy ) with some seasoning. Simmer for at least 20 mins (or longer) until thickened.


Topping -


Cook your cauliflower and once soft drain and mash up with some butter and seasoning .


Put it all together in a ovenproof dish and sprinkle your cheese ontop of cauliflower layer ( if your doing this bit ) and then cook in oven at 200 until browned..


As I got 6 good sized portions at about 200 calories each ..

So ,one each for Hubster & me & I will freeze down other portions for a later date ..


So comfort food for the freezer that’s healthy too !


❤️


#batchcooking at its best !
