It's time for another Ca C'est Bon, and this week we're in the Vermilionville kitchen having dinner for breakfast!

Abby Breidenbach was joined by Chef Marcus Bergeron to create a popular family meal, cottage pie.

Known as Shepherd's Pie when assembled using lamb, cottage pie is a traditional ground beef dish topped with mashed potatoes.

It's the perfect dish to quickly throw together, especially for those looking to use any leftover meat they may have in the fridge.

See the full recipe and cooking instructions below and follow Chef Marcus and Abby as they put together their cottage pie.
