Farmer's Pie
Oh my goodness!
We are not usually a casserole family, I mean we like green bean casserole but other ones I've tried to make have just not been a hit in our home. That really bums me out because casseroles are such a great way to use up leftovers, save money, and make great freezer meals!
But finally I think I've found a keeper!!! I was on GOODEness Gracious and she had this recipe she was trying out for Janet's Farmer's Pie from a Gooseberry Patch Cookbook coming out...I saw it and thought it would be perfect to use up leftovers in the fridge.
I made this big ol ham the other night and mashed potatoes and we've been trying to use it up in different ways but I still had all of these potatoes left. SO I used the recipe from her site modified it using leftover ham and some chicken I had in the fridge and then I added some more French's Fried Onions on top of the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese and OMGSH...AMAZING!!!
Its like a cheesy potato topped gooey green bean casserole with ham (you know green beans and ham are DELICIOUS). I'm sure the original recipe is just as good but I used what I had and it definitely worked for us!
Hayden had 2 helpings and even ate his green beans which he is not a green bean fan! He said it was sooo good and said I am the best maker ever! LOL
Try this recipe out in your family, you won't be disappointed!
Thanks for stopping by!
