Very quick easy comforting casserole dish made with ground beef, and topped with a cheesy biscuit puff.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons shortening
2 tablespoons chopped onion
1 pound ground beef
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 (16 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice
1/2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
1 (15 ounce) can carrots, drained
1 (15 ounce) can cut green beans, drained
1 cup sifted all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon mustard powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons shortening
1/4 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 cup milk
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Melt 2 tablespoons of shortening in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and ground beef to the pan, and cook until onion is tender and beef is browned, stirring frequently and crumbling beef. Drain fat. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt and pepper, then sprinkle 3 tablespoons of flour over the top. Pour in the tomatoes and Worcestershire sauce, and stir to blend everything. Cook for a few minutes, until slightly thickened. Stir in the carrots and green beans, then transfer to a 2 quart casserole dish.
3. In a medium bowl, stir together 1 cup of flour, baking powder, mustard powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Cut in 2 tablespoons of shortening until only small lumps remain, then stir in the cheese and milk to make a thick batter. Spoon over the top of the casserole, and spread evenly.
4. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until the top of the puff is golden brown.
