Corned Beef Pie Cheese Scones Recipes
This hearty store cupboard recipe is made with easily accessible pantry ingredients, such as tinned corned beef, tinned baked beans, onions, potatoes and BBQ sauce.
A Cheap and Cheerful Family Supper Recipe
Today's recipe isn't a big, gooey cake, or a plate of decadent brownies for Mothering Sunday (Mother's Day), although I have made a Simnel Cake. It's another pantry recipe for Store Cupboard Cowboy Pie.
I'm sharing this recipe today in response to the dozens of emails I've received asking me about recipes that people can make using everyday store cupboard staples.
And, this hearty store cupboard recipe is made with easily accessible pantry ingredients, such as tinned corned beef, tinned baked beans, onions, potatoes and BBQ sauce.
It's a fabulous recipe that I used to make for my daughter when she was little, and she loved it. Topped with a cheesy mashed potato, serve this pie with steamed greens such as Savoy cabbage in the winter, or a crunchy salad in the summer.
If you want to overload on the carbs then serve this with crusty bread for saucy dipping! This recipe is cheap, cheerful and thrifty, but a real family favourite. And, I'm hoping that today's recipe for Store Cupboard Cowboy Pie will hopefully become a family favourite with you and your family too.
I've seen a huge rise in traffic for all my thrifty and store cupboard recipes on Lavender & Lovage, as well as all my WARTIME recipes too.
It appears that people are worried about how to feed their families with limited fresh produce being available, and are turning to more "frugal" recipes that use limited ingredients.
I have ALWAYS been a fan of tinned items, and I always have a well-stocked store cupboard and pantry. I have shared my list of essential larder staples before here: Rural Store Cupboard Supplies and Milk Fadge: Emergency Bread (No Yeast) Recipe, which has proved to be very popular.
And, I have decided to share the list again later in this post, as it is a relevant today to ALL of us, as it has always been to me living in the country.
I have also got LOTS of new recipes to share over the next few weeks, that are EGG FREE and FAT FREE, as it becomes more difficult to purchase eggs etc.
Before I share today's recipe for Store Cupboard Cowboy Pie at the end of this post, PLEASE DO LEAVE ANY REQUESTS in the comments section, for ANY RECIPES YOU'D LIKE TO SEE ME POST here over the next few weeks.
Have a LOVELY day and stay in and stay safe, Karen
