This looks good.  A healthy shepherds pie.

The link to the recipe is in the twitter link. I hope it works.

Will have to use carrots and swede in the mash as DH doesn't like parsnips or beetroot.

The second link works for me DJ as I'm not on Twitter.  This looks good to me, I have all but the parsnips on hand so once it cools down a bit I'll give this a go, cooking only 1/2 quantity.  Love beetroot so will use it.  Thanks DJ, it sounds interesting.

Both links worked ok on my ipad, I don't use twitter either. I hate parsnips with a passion, I would have to substitute those for something else.

Sounds good to me DJ.  I'll put this on the to do list for when the weather cools.  I  love parsnip and will probably leave out the beetroot.  We like it cooked but not keen on it raw.

Jeninwa, I love parsnips as much as you hate them. I remember as a child my mum would cook them with carrots and then roughly mash them and I still occasionally do this. DH says I have some strange combinations (strawberry jam and cheese for instance).

Troupie I often do parsnip and carrot mashed together, with lots of pepper. I also love jam and cheese. Have you ever tried fruit cake and cheese? Sort of the same as the jam and cheese. It has to be a very fruity fruit cake.

Cookie, I love fruitcake and cheese but didn't mention that one; didn't want you all to think I was a bit of a fruitcake, DH does when I have that for my morning tea.

Made a similar one tonight with 1/2 cup green lentils cooked first. Lots of veg in with beef mince too.
On top sweet potato, swede, carrot and potato.
It was a hit, you'd never have known it had lentils in. Even DD liked it.
