The nights are getting colder and I’m feeling the need for some comforting, rich oven baked dinners, preferably ones which are relatively straightforward to put together and could last a few days in the fridge for another meal.
This simple dish has all the hearty warmth of a homemade cottage pie, with none of the carby ingredients! Tastes even better when reheated!
