It's not always easy to come up with a good meat free dinner that all the family will enjoy, especially when you have three children with varying views on vegetables.
I remember on pie week of GBBO Holly made a vegetarian pie which she said always went down well with her meat loving husband. So I decided on her version of a cheese and potato pie.
It uses 3 different cheeses and is topped with puff pastry - which I have to admit I bought from the supermarket. I still maintain life is too short to make puff pastry when you can get perfectly good stuff ready made. (It's important to know when to cheat!)
It was a dream to put together, just adding layers of the various ingredients it was assembled in a jiffy then in the oven for 30 minutes. It went very well with baked beans and no-one missed the meat. Cheers Holly.
The recipe calls for weights of ingredients that would leave me with oddments of stuff left over so I just made a little extra to use everything up and made a small one for another day. I didn't have any of the onion left for this one though so used Branston Pickle as a substitute making it a sort of Ploughmans Pie.
You can find the full recipe in the pie section of The Great British Bake Off How to Bake Book.
