So, my "bubble"" came round for Shepards pie earlier,.
And a fne time was had by all.
I have just had an attack of the munchies, and would like to share the fact that a dollop of shepards pie. wrapped in a slice of bread.
Is as close to a food eating orgasm as you are likely to get.

Even though my spawn have now vacated the family home we still make family size cottage/shepards pie, it’s always better the next day heated up or in a pastie. Today I had leftover sprouts and roasted parsnips mashed up together, fried with strong cheddar grated on top . When I was younger I didn't have much time for cooking and kept a pan of stew on the go, any leftovers went in that. I kept it going for almost 2 years, it was so good .

When I was a kid, during the winter there was always a very large pan of soup/stew on the stove.
A large family,eating at sporadic times, it seldom went cold.
When the pan got close to the bottom, a new one would be started, starting with boiling up bones, and the old pans' remains got tipped in.
These days I just make what I call ' big soup', chicken legs and drumsticks, chopped sausages, and any veg that come to hand.
I freeze it in single servings.
Takes two minutes in a micro-wave.
I'm not sure that winters used to be this cold!

We had one of them. Just had 'stuff ' in and was always there.

We have discovered cauliflower cheese..... With chorizo, butter beans, onion and broccoli.

Good winter food.

In this drab, mediocre temperate climate, stodge is fine late autumn/ winter/early spring.

Heavier cream and cheese based sauces, heavy strong beefy gravy on any meats etc

I don't grow cauliflower, but do grow leeks.
Cheesey leeks are a regular here.

Cheesey leeks ..... With chorizo, butter beans, onion and broccoli. Would work well!

We grow leaks, not Cauliflower, but we live in veg country.

Well no reason why not IMO. Cheese/cheese sauce goes well with leeks (and onions)

Yesterdays evening meal, we had "fish pie macaroni cheese" i.e. a macaroni cheese recipe, but with veg and fish pie ingredients stirred in, then baked.

Comes out pretty good.........

When does a cheese pie come out bad?

That is weird, but has to be tried.
