ideas for mince

[pdust]

got beef mince out to make a cottage pie for tea but everyone turned up their nose! when i asked what they want i got the 'i dunno its up to you reply' grrr

so apart from bolognese, meat balls and mince and tatties which i make every so often what can i do?

it has to be easy cos im feeling lazy

i have most usual spices in cupboard, loads of veggies, everything to make different breads and stuff like rice, sawar and couscous to go with it

Just make the cottage pie! If they are hungry they'll eat it!! Maybe spice it up a bit? Do sliced potatoes on top instead of mashed?

Used to make a american bean pie, layers of mince, baked beans, white sauce, and mashed potatoes, delicious....
