We thought we'd give your average shepherd's pie a makeover! By swapping mince to cannellini beans, watch as the beans and potato topping soak up the herby filling to perfection. We've also paired it with some hidden veg to bring in some freshness and fresh chilli to serve!

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

1
1

• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water, then add a generous pinch of salt. • Peel potato and cut into large chunks. • Cook potato in the boiling water, over high heat, until easily pierced with a fork, 12-15 minutes. Drain and return to the pan. • Add the butter and milk to potato and season with salt. Mash until smooth.

TIP: Save time and get more fibre by leaving the potato unpeeled.
