We asked loyal beef fans to send us their favourite
one-pan ground beef recipes. Lots of yummy casseroles,
soups and skillet meals came our way. With the help of
Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada dietitians,
our kitchens gave the dishes heart-healthy makeovers,
building in lots of easy options to make sure they fit busy lives.
Finally, we had real families test drive them,
right in their homes, for final approval.
The results are what we call Clever Casseroles!
We hope you enjoy these old-but-new recipes,
swapping back to you.
Enjoy,
