Healthy CottagePie!This is a great winter warmer however not your usual cottage pie as we have substituted the potato mash for a cauliflower mash. The two main ingredients in cauliflower are disease fighters, Indole-3-Carbinol, which helps to lower estrogens in the body and Photonutrient Sulforaphane. This sweeps toxins out of your system that normally damage the cells and turn cancerous. This is a great meal for the family, try it and I bet the others do not even guess there is no potato used… delicious!Ingredients? A knob of Butter? 1 large chopped Onion? 2 medium chopped Carrots? 500g Organic Lean Beef Mince? Tin of Chopped Tomatoes? 1 large cup of Beef Stock (290ml)? 1 Bay Leaf?
