variation on the cheeseburger pie ......... i made spicy mince and mushroom then layered with cauli mash and cheese , its in the oven now and smells devine

i got some spices in a little pack , they are to make your own meatballs but i made the mince up as stated , fried it and then pressed into a pyrex dish in stead of making in to balls , 2.3 carbs for the pack but i only used just over half

made the mash with a little butter , no cream thou , and then mashed with a masher not pureed so its got a bit of texture to it , added the cheese and its done :)
 
you only use 2 tbsp for the recipe stephen , that why i stated count the carbs cos it varies so much

if a person has had very low carb day they can enjoy this recipe no problem for their evening meal
 
maybe if you are going to eat the whole thing to yourself LOL ...... it serves 4 portions

when portioned out it's not bad carb wise and is very tasty , serve with greens or a green side salad
