Cowboy Pie Recipe Slimming World Style 1/2 a Syn on Extra Easy
This is one of my favorite slimming world dishes and is called Cowboy Pie, not quite sure why 
and to me it is a cottage pie with a bit of a kick but ok Cowboy Pie it is.
It is absolutely scrummy and if you like mashed potato with mince and vegetables you will love this recipe.
My mouth is watering now just writing up the recipe but I have to say Cowboy Pie is one of my Slimming World favorites, so give it a go you wont be disappointed I promise you.

Thanks for the recipe bit is it correct?
In the ingredients it states a tin of Baked Beans AND a tin of kidney beans but in the method it only mentions baked beans.
And is it really supposed to be 4 portions? Are you feeding giants?
Will definitely give it a whirl when I get a grip on “Easy Extra”
Whilst we found this very tasty there was far too much for 4 people. There is too much liquid in the recipe (with the passata and beef stock well over a litre) and it was more like soup. I actually had enough of the meat mixture to do another whole dish so would half the recipe next time. I will also omit the beef stock as I suspect it doesn’t need it. Please try though as the flavour is very good.
