Meal-in-One Recipe
- 1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed French onion soup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons prepared yellow mustard
- 2 tablespoons cold water
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 3 cups peeled and thinly sliced potatoes
- 2 (10 ounce) packages frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
- 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Cook ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat until evenly browned. Drain excess grease. Season with garlic, salt and pepper. Stir in the onion soup, Worcestershire sauce and mustard, and bring to a boil. Mix together the cold water and flour, and stir into the sauce. Simmer over low heat for a few minutes, then set aside.
- Meanwhile, place potatoes in a saucepan and add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook for 3 minutes, not until tender. Drain.
- Spread half of the beef mixture in the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish. Arrange half of the potatoes over the beef. Cover with a layer of mixed vegetables. Repeat layers.
- Cover the dish, and bake for 50 minutes in the preheated oven. Uncover, and sprinkle shredded cheese over the top. Bake for an additional 10 minutes to melt cheese.
