Broccoli, Beef & Potato Hotdish

From EatingWell: September/October 2010

This easy casserole, full of ground beef, roasted broccoli and topped with hash browns, was inspired by the classic Minnesota Tater Tot hotdish. Roasting the broccoli before adding it to the casserole gives the whole dish a much more complex and exciting flavor, but it’s by no means necessary. If you want to keep it simple, skip roasting the broccoli (Step 2) and use 6 cups frozen broccoli, thawed, in its place (omit 1 tablespoon oil, as well).

Needed more flavor

I made a couple of adjustment- used low fat cheddar soup with just a can full of 1%milk to bake it and Mrs. Dash garlic herb seasoning was added afterwards to give the dish extra flavor without adding salt. These changes made the dish pretty good.

Pros: Pretty simple

Too rich and need more flavor

Overall the dish was flavorless. I even reduced the sauce and it still tasted too rich. I need the beef in every bite to get some flavor. Would not make it again.

Pros: Hash brown and beef was tasty

Comfort food that needs some zing

My husband and I love casseroles so we were ready to love this....which we kind of did. I think with some tweaks, like more spices and vegetables it will be great.

Pros: One dish, lots of leftovers
