Enjoy a comforting twist on the classic shepherd's pie with lean ground beef, vibrant roasted vegetables, and a silky cauliflower- Greek yogurt mash topping. This dish offers hearty flavor with a light touch and a pleasing texture contrast between the savory meat layer and the creamy, herb-infused topping.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Beef (90% lean)
1 cup Mixed Vegetables
1 cup Cauliflower Florets
1/4 cup Fat-Free Plain Greek Yogurt
1/2 medium Yellow Onion
1 Garlic Clove
1/2 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Fresh Thyme
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a small baking dish or use a cast-iron skillet.
In a skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Sauté the chopped half onion and minced garlic until fragrant and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. Season with salt, pepper, and thyme.
Stir in the mixed vegetables and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the veggies begin to soften. Transfer the beef and vegetable mixture into the baking dish, pressing it evenly to form the base layer.
In a separate pot, steam the cauliflower florets until very tender, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and mash the cauliflower until smooth.
Mix in the fat-free Greek yogurt into the mashed cauliflower, and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Spread the creamy cauliflower topping evenly over the beef and vegetable base.
Place the assembled dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until the topping is heated through and slightly golden on the edges.
Remove from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, then serve warm.
