Sweet Potato Shepards Pie

Sweet Potato Shepards Pie

Ingredients:

1 large sweet potato

500g lean beef mince

1 brown onion

1 carrot 

1/2 cup peas 

1 vegetable stock cube

1Tbsp tomato sauce (no added sugar)

1Tbsp barbecue sauce (no added sugar)

Herbs and spices to taste

Method:

1. Peel, chop up and boil sweet potato till soft.

2. In a pan with a small amount of water brown mince, add diced onion and carrot and cook until onion has softened. 

3. Then add crumbled stock cube, both sauces and herbs and spices to taste. (I used Mingle all purpose seasoning)

4. Add peas at the end and mix through. 

5. Spray small ramekins with coconut oil and and fill with mince mixture then top with mashed sweet potato.

6. Place in oven on 200 degrees Celsius for 20 mins or till crisp on top.

Tips:

1. Mingle seasonings are made with all natural ingredients and don't have any unnecessary added sugars or chemical fillers. A variety can be purchased from www.mingleseasoning.com

2. The sauces I use are the brand Fountain. You find these in the supermarket in the normal sauce section but say on the label in blue "no added sugar". 

3. Make sure there is still water in the pan when you add the stock cube, if there isn't add a very small amount. 

4. I added unsweetened almond/coconut milk to my mash to create a creamier texture.

5.  This meal can be made in one big oven dish, I did mine in 4 small ramekins which I have glad wrapped and put in the fridge. 

Enjoy!
