INGREDIENTS
6 oz Lean Ground Beef
1 medium Carrot
1 medium Parsnip
1 small Onion
2 cloves Garlic
1 medium Potato
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Dried Thyme
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add finely chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until softened and fragrant.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet, cooking until browned. Season with salt, pepper, and dried thyme.
While the beef cooks, peel and dice the carrot and parsnip into small cubes. Add them to the skillet and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until they begin to soften.
Transfer the beef and vegetable mixture into an oven-safe dish, spreading it evenly as the base.
For the topping, peel and cube the potato. Boil the potato cubes until tender, then drain and mash them with the low-fat milk. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
Spread the mashed potato evenly over the beef and vegetable layer.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the top to gain a light golden hue.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.
