Can’t go wrong with pie. Any pie. This one is genius, hot or cold and perfect for camping/picnics/lunch anytime really! Again, you can put pretty much anything you like in. But these are some of my favourites.

1 x Brown Onion, diced (or zzzz’d) + 250 gms or so of Bacon, diced. Saute with some butter and oil in a pan till onion is soft and bacon has released its water. Set aside to cool.

Line a baking dish or pie tin with store bought pastry. This is where you can get fancy if you like – put Savory Short on the bottom and Flaky Puff on the top. Or not, Short on the top is fine too! Pop it in the fridge, while you get everything else sorted. You want cold pastry so it doesn’t go yuck and soft. Heat your oven to 180 Fan.

I like spinach, tomato, cheese and parsley. Lazy pants here…… I get the frozen cubes of spinach and simply defrost for this pie. Either slice some tomatoes or tumble in some baby ones and store bought grated cheese. I do manage to cut my own parsley though! You can drop in really whatever you like and have on hand. There are no rules. I just like this particular combination.

Take pie dish out of fridge and layer up with the bacon/onion and spinach. Top with tomatoes. Crack over eggs. Keep them whole. Cover the filling with eggs (generally I use 6-8 depending on dish size). Scatter with parsley. Give it a good season with black pepper and if you like some salt. Sprinkle with cheese.

Cover the filling with your top layer of pastry and brush with a beaten egg. This will give it a lovely colour. Poke a few holes so the steam can escape and bake for around 45 mins. EAT IT!
