(Leftover steak makes great cottage pie)Bear with me, the flash on my point-and-shoot has finally died, so as the sun sets, the pictures become muddy.
Leftover steak, diced (about a cup and a half).
These go into a casserole dish. 
I cut up two small onions and 5 fat cloves of garlic. The onions were cooked on medium-low until they became translucent (lightly salted), then the garlic was added and cooked until fragrant. Both were added to the meat. 
In the same pan, I cooked down two diced portobellas.
All set and ready for a topping. I didn't have any potatoes, but the pantry always has powdered tato-buds for such occasions.
I deglazed the pan using chicken stock and 1/2 and 1/2 (the liquid called for in the directions for one packet of buds).
I placed this in a 375f oven for 40 minutes.
