Shepherds pie an oven dish filled with vegetables, potatoes and meat. But this variant with tuna is definitely a keeper.
Shepherds pie is an ideal recipe that you can use if you have some leftovers. Vegetables combined with meat nicely flavored at the bottom of the baking dish. Add some extra if necessary and top everything with a delicious creamy layer of potatoes. Gratinate the casserole in the oven and you have a quick and easy meal.
But sometimes you have vegetables and potatoes, but no meat left. Or you prefer to eat fish. Then this shepherds pie with tuna is a solution.
Tips
- Because Shepherds pie is very suitable for leftovers, this is a basic recipe. Vary nice and loose with leftovers that you have left. It really tastes delicious.
- Prepare the casserole the day before and put it in the refrigerator instead of the oven. So you only have to bake it the day after.
It's a good taste!
