My Recipe Collection: Cottage Pie

It appears that cottage pies are made with beef and shepherd's pies are made with lamb

This recipe has quite a few steps, and requires quite a bit of work, and it may get a little hectic if you're making other dishes, but it tastes great!
I made this for a half Christmas, half end-of-the-world-eve dinner party at my place, and apart from the slightly raw garlic in the mashed potatoes, everyone loved it!

My Recipe Collection: Swedish Meatballs

Meatballs to remind you of IKEA and Christmas

I came across this awesome recipe when I was looking for a traditional Swedish dish for my twins' birthday. By my twins, I of course meant Henrik and Daneil Sedin of the Vancouver Canucks =) Not expecting much, I was blown away by how good they were, especially since I didn't have most of the required spices! It had so much flavour that I wouldn't have believed the ingredients were as simple if I wasn't the one that made it.
