INGREDIENTS:

  • 1¼ lb lean ground beef
  • 8 slices light whole-wheat Texas toast
  • 1 can fat-free cream of mushroom soup
  • Half cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp yellow mustard
  • Half cup diced dill pickles
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Quarter tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup  reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 slices reduced-fat American cheese
  • Half tsp salt
  • Cooking spray

INGREDIENT NOTES:

LEAN GROUND BEEF:

  • It includes classic cheeseburger taste and protein in the casserole. Ground beef reduces the fat and calories while making the meal comforting. You may utilize lean ground turkey as per your preference.

LIGHT TEXAS TOAST:

  • Toast makes the golden topping and gives a familiar Texas-toast texture to the casserole. You may use reduced-calorie sandwich bread as another idea.

FAT-FREE CREAM OF MUSHROOM SOUP:

  • This cream makes the creamy and moist beef filling without adding extra fat. It gives a mild savory mushroom taste in the recipe. You may use fat-free cream of chicken soup as a substitute.

NON-FAT PLAIN GREEK YOGURT:

  • We use yogurt as a substitute of sour cream in this recipe. It keeps the casserole creamy and gives a slightly tangy texture. You may use fat-free sour cream as an alternative.

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. First, spray the baking dish lightly and warm the oven to 375°F.
  2. Cook the beef for 10 minutes in the skillet then break it into pieces.
  3. Drain the extra liquid, then include cream of mushroom soup, Greek yogurt, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
  4. Now cook the ingredients for 5 minutes over a low flame and spread the mixture evenly in the dish.
  5. Sprinkle reduced-fat cheddar on the beef, then tear the American cheese slices and spread on the cheddar.
  6. Include diced pickles on the cheese and arrange the Texas slices on top.
  7. Spray the bread lightly and bake for 25 minutes, then cool for five minutes.
