We are all enjoying our long weekend here!
I am happy to say that even though Vic and the boys have been home, I have managed to do some form of exercise everyday!
The cup is on this afternoon - I have backed the Diva, as I don't really know what other horses are around - and I have backed her for the last couple of years!

Not much else really happening, so I thought I would post the recipe for the cottage pie we had for tea last night!

Cottage Pie serves four, 5 points each ( the old points)

2 tsp olive oil
1 onion, chopped finely
1 stick celery, chopped finely
500g lean beef mince
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon flour
400g canned tomatoes - I used crushed
1/2 cup beef stock
1 carrot, grated
5 medium potatoes
1/2 cup skim milk
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese

Heat a large frypan, cook the onion and celery till soft. Add the mince and cook. Stir in garlic and flour. Add tomatoes, carrot and stock, bring to boil then reduce heat and simmer till mixture is thick and moist.
Meanwhile. Cook potatoes until tender. Mash with milk.
Spoon meat into ovenproof dish. Spread the mashed potato on top and gently press down with the back of a fork. Sprinkle with cheese and bake 30 minutes till heated through and golden on top.
Enjoy!!!
