Meat & Potato Pie

As a food blogger, my camera is never far away. I don’t start cooking unless I know that my camera is within reach. It’s become a habit that I rarely even think about anymore – I cook…I snap, I stir…I snap, I plate…I snap. Such is life.

So it’s unusual for me to put food on the table that I haven’t taken a picture of first. But it does happen, as it did when I made this recipe.  I remembered to take pictures while I was making the dish but I forgot that crucial finished-product-on-a-plate picture. Yet the recipe is too good to not be shared, so I’m hoping you can all overlook this food blogging faux pas and see that deliciousness of the finished dish in your mind.
