Mince can be quite versatile and challenging! Apart from spaghetti bolognese, lasagne, cottage pie or just plain mince try the following:
Mix with diced vegetables, herbs and seasoning, wrap in pastry!.
Add finely chopped onion and garlic, herbs, seasoning, a little flour or oats and water to bind it all together, roll into sausage or round shapes and fry or bake!.
Mix it with some cheap liver, oats, herbs and seasoning and make a meat loaf!. You don't have to add the liver, but it makes a change from just mince, plus the loaf can be hot or cold!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Another recipe my mum used to always make, I don't know what to call it but here is the recipe!!
Make a cheese sauce up and put to one side
brown some mince with a bit of chopped onion - add a bit of gravy mix!.
Slice some potatoes, not too thick, not too thin!.
layer all the ingredients in a bowl with a layer of the cheese sauce on the top and put in the oven until the potatoes are cooked, I suppose it's a bit like a lasagne but with potato not pasta sheets, I dunno, it's lovely though!Www@FoodAQ@Com
