Ingredients

  • 1 head cauliflower, chopped
  • 1 pound ground beef or lamb
  • 1 cup carrots, diced
  • 1 cup celery, diced
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 teaspoon rosemary
  • 1 cup beef broth

Instructions

  1. 1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  6. 6. Spread the meat mixture evenly in a baking dish, and top with the cauliflower mash. Smooth the top with a spatula and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the top is slightly golden.
