Boursin truffle filo pie
A conforming and nourishing one pot crispy filo pie !
It is officially fall, days are getting shorter and colder, which means it is the perfect time to make this comforting, and nourishing one pot filo pie. The secret ingredient to add flavour and a creamy texture is Boursin Truffle cheese. I have been a long time fan of Boursin cheese, so when I heard they had a truffle version I had to try it, and it was love at first sight (or should I say taste?)!
Not only this pie is incredibly delicious but also very nourishing and packs 6 of your 5 a day, and plenty of protein thanks to the butter bean filling. Furthermore, the filling is gluten-free so you can use GF pastry if you are coeliac or gluten intolerant.
This recipe is all made in one pan so it requires minimal effort and time, and it is incredibly versityle so it makes for the perfect meal after a long day at work or an impressive dinner dish if you have guests coming over!
