INGREDIENTS
3 oz Lean Ground Beef
1 medium Potato
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/2 cup diced Carrots
1/2 cup Green Peas
1/4 cup diced Onion
1/4 cup Low-Sodium Beef Broth
Olive Oil Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a skillet, heat a light spray of olive oil over medium heat and sauté the diced onion until softened, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet. Cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Drain any excess fat if needed.
Stir in the diced carrots and green peas. Cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly tender, then add the low-sodium beef broth and allow the mixture to simmer for another 2 minutes to meld the flavors. Season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Meanwhile, prepare the potato topping. Microwave or boil the potato until soft. Mash the potato and mix in the nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy texture.
Transfer the beef and vegetable mixture to an oven-safe dish, spreading it evenly. Dollop and then spread the mashed potato topping over the beef mixture.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until the topping is slightly golden and the filling is bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your hearty, protein-packed cottage pie!
