INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Beef
1/2 cup diced Carrots
1/2 cup Green Peas
1/4 cup diced Onion
1/2 cup Mashed Russet Potato
1/4 cup Skim Milk
1 tsp Butter
Salt, Pepper, and Herbs to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a skillet over medium heat, drizzle a minimal amount of olive oil if desired. Add the diced onions and sauté until they soften, about 2 minutes.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon.
Mix in the diced carrots and green peas. Season with salt, pepper, and any herbs of your choice. Allow the mixture to simmer for 5 minutes so the flavors meld.
Transfer the beef and vegetable mixture into a small baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Prepare the mashed potato topping by combining the steamed or boiled russet potato with skim milk and butter. Mash until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Spread the mashed potatoes evenly over the beef mixture, creating a smooth topping.
Bake the dish in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, until the topping is slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
