Cast Iron Pork Pie

Preheat the oven to 450ºF.

In a cast iron skillet, brown the diced bacon and pork. (I just bought a pack of sliced bacon and cut the bacon with some kitchen shears over the pan so the dices fell directly into the pan. Then all you have to do is discard the now-cut-up package the bacon was in.) Once the meat is browned, set aside.

To the skillet, add onions, kale, celery, garlic, cinnamon, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Let sit for 4-5 minutes then add the meat back into the pan with a splash of water. Mix the ingredients together and add the parsley, mixing once more.

Turn the heat off and spread your mashed potatoes over the mixture. Sprinkle this with the cheddar cheese and bake 15-20 minutes until golden.
