Ingredients:
1⁄2 pound of potatoes (rich in fiber and potassium)
1 pound lean beef stew, cooked (great source of protein)
12 ounces Non-Alcoholic Evaporated Milk (low-fat option, supporting calcium intake)
14 grams cheese soup (optional, for added creaminess)
1⁄2 cup whole milk (calcium-rich)
1 yellow onion, diced (full of antioxidants)
8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese (choose reduced-fat for heart health)
1 teaspoon of salt (use in moderation for balanced sodium levels)
1⁄2 teaspoon of black pepper
Steps to Prepare:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 13×9-inch dish to ensure easy serving and clean-up.
2. In a skillet, cook the lean beef and diced onion until fully done, providing a high-protein base for your meal.
3. While the beef cooks, peel the potatoes, which are high in potassium, and slice them into thin quarter-inch rounds.
4. Begin layering by placing a portion of potato slices at the bottom of the dish. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper, keeping sodium levels balanced.
5. Spoon one-third of the beef mixture over the potatoes, followed by one-third of the cheese. Continue layering until all ingredients are used, ensuring cheese tops the casserole.
6. In a separate bowl, mix both types of milk with the cheese soup. This creates a creamy base with a good source of calcium, supporting
