Beef and Cauliflower Casserole

I'm feeling pretty lazy today, so I had one of those "throw it all together" sort of nights. Basically, I opened the fridge, grabbed everything that looked appetizing, and combined it into a casserole. It's not the most gourmet of meals, but it's tasty, filling, and easy to make ahead of time.

Beef and Cauliflower Casserole
Serves 4 and is 400 calories per serving

1 large egg, beaten
1 teaspoon of beef base
1 small yellow onion, diced
1 head of cauliflower, chopped
1 sweet pepper, diced
1 ounce of shiitake mushrooms, chopped
4 ounces of shredded Cabot 75% reduced fat sharp cheddar cheese
4 purple potatoes, peeled and cut into coins
9 ounces of lean ground beef
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons peanut oil

  1. Whisk together the egg and the beef base until the beef base is completely dissolved. Add the onion, cauliflower, pepper, mushrooms, cheese, potatoes, and beef. Stir until well combined.
  2. Spread in a greased glass baking dish.
  3. Combine the breadcrumbs and the peanut oil and sprinkle over the casserole. Cover with foil.
  4. Bake at 375 degrees for 45 minutes or until cooked all the way through. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
