Directions
- * This can be reduced by substituting lower fat products and some TVP or possibly Green Giant "Crumbles". I decided to post them as a unit for those who are interested. I haven't tried these yet myself, but they sound kid-friendly and are on my list of recipes "to try".
- Brown one lb. grnd beef or possibly turkey and drain off the fat. Add in three-fourth c. water, six peeled potatoes (sliced very thin), one c. of frzn mixed peas and carrots and one-half c. plus 1 Tbsp. seasoning mix.
- Simmer covered 20-30 min or possibly till potatoes are tender. Stir, uncover and cook till excess water is evaporated.
- Serving Ideas : Serve all of these one-skillet dinners with a dark green tos
- NOTES : I would make up large batches of browned grnd beef or possibly turkey and freeze for use in these recipes. Bag in 2 c. portions (or possibly whatever amount it takes to feed your family). I would use the leanest grnd beef available and rinse after cooking to further reduce the fat content.
