- Serves 2
This is a make over of a Shepherd's Pie recipe. The colors and flavors brought out with use of red cabbage, carrots, and fresh sweet basil are the stand out features.
Ingredients
- 1/2 lb. ground beef shopping list
- whole frozen young grn beans, cut in 1 inch pieces to equal 1/2 cup shopping list
- 1.5 cups prepared white sauce shopping list
- 1/2 onion, chopped shopping list
- 1/2 cup carrot slices, julienn'ed shopping list
- 1/4 cup red cabbage, chopped shopping list
- 1 clove garlic, minched shopping list
- 5 leaves sweet basil, cut into thin strips shopping list
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese shopping list
- 2 cups mashed potatoes (instant okay) shopping list
- black pepper, optional shopping list
- cooking spray, optional shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 350 F / 175 C
- Prepare white sauce and set aside.
- Cook and stir ground beef, onion, carrots in skillet over med. hi heat until beef is browned; about 10 minutes. Drain fat.
- Mix in garlic, cabbage, and basil, cooking for about 2 minutes before adding white sauce, and heating through.
- Pour beef mixture into two prepared 1 quart oven-able bowls (or one 2 quart baking dish).
- Top meat with a layer of green beans.
- Mix cheddar into prepared mashed potatoes, and spread on top of meat/green beans.
- Optionally sprinkle with black pepper and spray lightly with cooking spray.
- Bake in preheated oven utnil mashed potato layer has a golden crust...about 30 minutes.
- Note A: 2 very generous servings/ or 4 less so. If you are serving with a salad and bread, you may get by with this being 4 servings.
- Note B: When I say white sauce, I refer to the butter/flour/salt cooked with sudden addition of milk to make a thick sauce. There will surely be a simple white sauce recipe on here already. I opted for white sauce as opposed to a sodium dense can of creamed soup, but if you choose that route, it would work as a substitute.
