Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground meat (beef, turkey, chicken, or pork)
  • 12 small potatoes, diced (~½-inch pieces)
  • 1 can condensed cream soup (mushroom, chicken, or celery)
  • ¾ cup cold milk (plus a splash more as needed)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Shredded cheese, as desired
  • Fresh herbs, for garnish
  • Frozen vegetables, for extra nutrition

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the ground meat, season with salt and pepper, and cook until fully browned.
  2. Stir in the diced potatoes and cook while stirring occasionally for about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the condensed cream soup and ¾ cup cold milk. Stir until smooth; add more milk if needed.
  4. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes until potatoes are fork-tender.
  5. Adjust the seasoning and add cheese if desired. Add frozen vegetables in the last 3-4 minutes of cooking. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve hot.
