SUSIE T’s NOTES:
This dish is one of my very favorite Fall Comfort Food Classics. It’s perfectly Induction Friendly and makes a quick and easy weeknight meal – especially when you use have the Meat Base II cooked and frozen in the freezer. Who needs Hamburger Helper with these types of recipes on hand. Hard to believe it’s low carb and healthy for you.
A slice or two of tomatoes is the only side dish you need for this speedy meal, if you need a side dish at all. It tastes like you spent all day on it. And the best part of all? Not a speck of soy or grains in sight!
