Vegetable & Beef Lasagna – Gluten Free

Beef & Vegetable Layer Dish
This is one of those recipes that I came up with by accident because of the lack of ingredients in my kitchen. We just moved house on the weekend and all I had to cook with was some frozen mince, one sweet potato, one beetroot and pumpkin. Sometimes when I am challenged to be creative because of lack of ingredients, amazing things happen, this dish was one of them. So simple, yet so delicious and healthy.

This was also the first meal that I cooked in my new kitchen which was just a little bit exciting for me. My microwave died half way through cooking, I suspect it may have been dropped during the move. I have had no luck with microwaves lasting. Also I have a new space and appliances that I need to get used to, but so far I am loving it, especially all of the bench space that I have. So you can expect to see some amazing dishes coming out of my new kitchen in the future…  I hope so anyway.

Vegetable & Beef Layer DishI hope that you enjoy this recipe as much as I did.
