Cheesy Ground Beef and Green Bean Skillet

This hearty dish serves four and is easy to make! I use fresh beans because, well, they taste better but frozen works well too! And yes, you can sub with ground turkey but I would stick to the beef for flavors' sake.

  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  •  2 cups fresh or frozen green beans
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup beef broth (use lower sodium)
  • Garlic powder, pepper, and paprika to taste

  1.  Brown ground beef and drain excess grease.
  2.  Add onion and green beans.
  3.  Pour in beef broth and seasonings.
  4.  Cover and simmer 10–12 minutes.
  5.  Sprinkle cheese over the top and let melt.

This is very diabetic friendly!
