    Why the cheese, when you already have your protein in the mince? The carbs is obviously the potato, so we need more veg in there. I'd go with either peas and sweetcorn, or maybe cook some broccoli then cu it down into really wee florets. Or even do a twist to Bubble and Squeak, and get some ligthly cooked cabbage (or spinach or kale) into the potato, then the mince over the top. That way, you can have your cheese at one of your other meals - giving variety, dairy requirements, veg portions towards 5-a-day, and whatever else I've forgotten.
