Monday Pie - a great way to use up leftover beef! Fab Food 4 All #beef #comfortfood #mainmeal #leftovers

Monday Pie is a great dish for using up your leftover roast beef! So quick, easy and delicious, you’ll be making this again and again!

I thought it was high time I updated my popular Monday Pie recipe and photography. This is a traditional recipe for using up your roast beef from Sunday which I originally adapted by adding mushrooms and par boiling the potato slices.

When you make something a lot you often make little tweaks and so the only one I have made since is to add a whole tin of tomatoes instead of just half.

We don’t have my Monday Pie nearly as often now since my daughter became a vegetarian but as my son came back from University at the weekend we had roast beef and so of course on Monday it had to be Monday Pie!

I have to admit that my mind wasn’t completely on the job in hand. Having a poorly cat that I’m nursing round the clock, a daughter who suddenly had an asthma attack and needed collecting from school just as 2 trucks delivering and mixing concrete had parked across my driveway and then having the noise of said trucks on my return meant that I forgot to add the gravy powder to the recipe.

I also blame having a new laptop which I haven’t wanted to ruin by bringing into the kitchen so thought that I’d use my Google Home Mini to read out the recipe.

So although I got the gravy powder out of the cupboard, I skipped forward and then simply forgot. I had tried using my phone but it kept going to sleep, maybe I need to adjust the settings as you can’t keep touching your phone while you’re cooking!

So just imagine that the sauce is a little browner and thicker as I didn’t want to have to wait another couple of months before my son came back from uni again!

If you haven’t had Monday Pie before I do hope you try it as it’s so easy to make and comfort food at its best! You simply start by par boiling your potato slices and then mix all of the other ingredients together bar the cheese which is added 15 minutes before the end.

    My family thoroughly enjoyed this, I added a little left over gravy and just flour not gravy powder, worked really well. Will definitely be making this again!

    I am wondering if this dish can be frozen after cooking?

      Hi Sharon, I’ve never tried freezing it but can’t see any reason why you couldn’t.

    Is it possible to use a root vegetable mash as a topping rather than parboil slice potatoes?

      I don’t see why you couldn’t do that:-)

    This was SO good! I didn’t have mushrooms on hand, so didn’t add them but did everything else as instructed. We all loved it!

    I have made this a few times now and I have used whatever we had for Sunday dinner, Beef, Chicken or Ham. I now put chorizo in with whatever meat I use always tastes good and goes down well with the family.
