There’s nothing wrong with mince. Savoury mince did us well on many occasions. I actually prefer it on toast when it’s cold and miserable outside.

Yes mince is a regular in my house too – it is perfect for hiding veg, veg and more veg. I have not graduated much past sheps pie, spag bol or meatloaf though. I’ll def try stuffing mince into something next time!

Lasagne … thats what I made the other night and leftovers frozen for lunch.

Meatloaf but I haven’t made this for years and years .It was one of mum’s favourites.

Glad we were able to assist. Those stuffed tomatoes look great, I think I will have to give them a go.

JanMary add some herbs and spices to your meatballs to add a little more taste. My kids love them..

I too have had many experiments with ‘mince many ways’!! I also do home made sausage rolls with mince… I usually hide grated carrot, pumpkin and peas in mine, and gravox for the sauce to hold it all together. Then just wrap in puff pastry and you’re done! I’ve also found you can hide lentils in them…just use a standard soup mix, and leave them soaking in boiled water all day til they’re soft and soggy. It it wrong that I’m not even a mother and I still hide vegies!?!

Glad I could help. My kids are all grown and gone, but I remember those days of mince, mince, mince very well! Stuffed zuccini (or zumi as my kids called it) is my personal favorite.
