And theres a double potato hit.
Heres a bit of food trivia for you: Shepherds Pie vs Cottage Pie.
Do you know the difference?
The recipe is the same a mince filling topped with mashed potato.
I always get the names confused!
I first saw this Shepherds Pie Potato Skins recipe in a Womens Weekly magazine way back in the 90s.
Well, not this exact recipe because I make the filling my way which is super fast.
And a few weeks ago I saw it on Instagram and it prompted me to make it.
The Instagram post was byChristinas Cucina, a Scots-Italian food blogger based in LA.

I mean, with that bloodline, how could younotbe a great cook, right??
So thanks Christina, for reminding me of this!!
It doesnt impact the flavor at all.

As a fast food blog, I make this the express way.
Firstly, I microwave the potatoes.
It takes about 10 minutes, compared to 50 minutes to bake.
But you might bake the potatoes if you have an aversion to microwaving.
Saves a whole lot of chopping!
But if you prefer to use fresh vegetables, feel free to substitute!
