You poor thing! I seem to be ok with shepherds pie. did you use lamb or beef mince? I use beef mince that is 5g or less from tesco.

Hope you feel ok soon

I'm glad you said you use Beef mince. I've been avoiding it as I thought it might be too fatty.

Will give it a whirl!

Cheers

Hi Dawn,

Just a thought but have you tried quorn mince, its really low in fat and I make shepherds pie quite a bit for me and my partner and I don't think he can tell the difference !

Might just stop the cramps :!:

thanks for your help everyone, i used beef but im still suffering a day later tho its calmed alot so i think me and shepherds pie will be parting company lol

hi, i had horrible expereiences with mince, untill i boiled it first to brown it, instead of frying, now im totally fine, and as mince is a staple for so many recipes maybe you should try it. It tastes exactly the same once sauce is on it say for spag bog, or herbs etc for shep pie. Hope this helps.
