Enjoy a comforting twist on the classic shepherd's pie with lean ground beef, a medley of mixed vegetables, and a creamy mashed potato topping. This dish is baked to perfection for a warm, hearty meal that comforts while keeping the macros balanced for your health goals.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Beef
1 medium Russet Potato
1/2 cup Frozen Mixed Vegetables (Peas & Carrots)
1/4 cup Low-fat Milk
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a skillet over medium heat, add the 4 oz lean ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking it up into small pieces. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of thyme if desired.
Once the beef is nearly cooked through, stir in the 1/2 cup of frozen mixed vegetables. Allow them to warm through and soften slightly, then remove the mixture from the heat.
Meanwhile, peel and cube the medium russet potato. Boil the potato cubes in salted water until tender, about 15 minutes.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add 1/4 cup low-fat milk and 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil. Mash until smooth, seasoning with a little salt and pepper.
In a small baking dish, spread the beef and vegetable mixture evenly. Top with the creamy mashed potatoes, smoothing the top with the back of a spoon.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the potato topping is lightly browned.
Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, then serve and enjoy your balanced, comforting meal.
