Mashed potatoes and beans and with various toppings is a quick meal I often make for my son. I decided to make the dish a bit more interesting and served it as Beans and Mash Bake which looked a bit like PIzza with a potato base. The dish tasted great as all the flavours had blended perfectly. This would be perfect to serve to anyone with an allergy to yeast, bread or wheat. Not sure about it being Gluten free as It’s not my area of expertise. The ingredients for this dish are what everyone would have in their cupboard.
