Ingredients
Scale
1 pound lean ground beef
2 medium carrots, diced
1 small zucchini, diced
2 tablespoons fresh or dried chives
2 tablespoons garlic-infused olive oil
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 cup low FODMAP beef broth
1 tablespoon FODMAP-friendly Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
4 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cubed
2 tablespoons lactose-free butter
1/4 cup lactose-free milk
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a medium baking dish.
Heat garlic-infused olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté carrots and zucchini for 5 minutes.
Add ground beef, breaking it up and browning it completely.
Stir in tomato paste, chives, thyme, Worcestershire sauce, and beef broth. Simmer for 10 minutes.
Boil potatoes until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash with butter and milk. Season with salt.
Layer the meat mixture in the baking dish, then top with mashed potatoes, spreading evenly.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the top is slightly golden and filling is bubbling.
Optional: Broil for 2–3 minutes to crisp the top. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.
