This one sounds and might even look a little odd, but this meal turned out tasting delicious! I pretty much doubled the original recipe and ended up using ground beef instead of lamb. For the cauliflower mash I ended up adding 1 1/2 Tbsp of coconut oil and no coconut milk, and I thought that turned out perfect. I also did not add the cauliflower mash into the slow cooker for the last 30 minutes since I wanted to portion out my meals first. For the slow cooker part I chose high for 4 hours and I thought that might have been too long. I suggest doing the 6-8 hour slow cook instead or check on it after 3 hours if you need to choose the high setting. Overall though, this meal turned out really good and it was so easy to throw together, including the cauliflower mash. Definitely a great meal prep recipe!
