INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Beef (90/10)
100 g Sweet Potato
0.25 cup diced Carrot
0.25 cup Green Peas
0.25 cup diced Onion
0.25 cup Reduced Sodium Beef Broth
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Fresh Thyme
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Peel and chop the sweet potato into chunks. Boil them in lightly salted water until tender, then drain and mash with a fork until smooth. Set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced onion and minced garlic until translucent and fragrant.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned. Drain excess fat if necessary.
Stir in diced carrots, green peas, and a splash of beef broth along with the fresh thyme. Let the mixture simmer until the vegetables are just tender. Season with salt and pepper.
Spoon the beef and vegetable mixture into a small baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Top with the mashed sweet potato, smoothing it out to cover the filling completely.
Place the dish in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes until the topping begins to turn slightly golden.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve.
