Chef Jenn’s Tips

  • Use lean ground beef so your dish isn’t greasy. You could also use ground turkey, chicken, or even pork or sausage.
  • This is a dairy-free recipe, but you could top it with some shredded cheese if you’d like a bit more flavor.
  • You can easily double this recipe to feed a crowd.
  • The beauty of this vintage casserole recipe is its simplicity - don’t overcomplicate it with extra flavors or ingredients.
