One Pot Meals – Shepherd’s Pie in the Ninja Foodi

This gluten and dairy-free shepherd’s pie recipe comes together in one pot – the Ninja Foodi! This is the more North American version using ground beef and vegetables as opposed to the traditional Irish version using leftover roast lamb. Some call my version here a Cottage Pie

No strainers are required here as the mashed potatoes are pressure cooked, the filling is pressure cooked and then crisped up to perfection all in one appliance. Hope you enjoy this easy ground beef shepherd’s pie. Add this one to your list of one pot meals.

Revisiting Ireland

Mar 14, 2019

The influence of Irish culture is very strong in Canada but I never thought I would end up going to Ireland until I found the mecca of cooking schools was situated there. I trained at the Ballymaloe Cookery School in Ireland. It was for their 12 week intensive where you live on their 100 acre organic farm and learn the nitty gritty of all things farm to table. Basically, it was a 2 year college program condensed into 3 months.

Mine is a low sugar version, but still oh-so decadent. The Instant Pot tenderizes the ground beef very well and infuses a ton of flavour and come together in 20 minutes. Are you ready to read about how to make them?

These quick and easy tomato meatballs are a Serbian childhood favourite of mine growing up known as cufte. What I love about Instant Pot Meatballs is their simplicity. The tomato sauce is just a handful of ingredients and the meatballs themselves are super flavourful.
