Easy Fish Pie Recipe
"This is the perfect recipe for everyone that fancies a good, healthy seafood dish that’s ready in a jiffy. I have been making quite a few fish dishes lately as part of making our healthy eating become a reality, and this low calories and super easy fish pie recipe is the latest fish dish in the collection. Definitely one easy fish pie recipe to make and share with your family or friends, delicious and nourishing, packed with beautiful vegetables and flavors. "
NotesHaving a chunk of something smoked is definitely a must as far as I like it, it brings a real depth and richness to the dish as well as (again!) making it more sustainable since we have real good smoked fish available to buy online or in supermarkets like haddock or salmon.
