Savory Mushroom Beef Casserole Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the lean ground beef, seasoning with salt and pepper. Drain any excess fat and set the beef aside.
- In the same skillet, melt the light butter. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until tender. Season with minced garlic, seasoning salt, fresh parsley, and a dash of pepper.
- In a mixing bowl, blend together the softened reduced-fat cream cheese and eggs until smooth.
- In a baking dish, layer the cooked ground beef. Pour the cream cheese and egg mixture evenly over the beef layer.
- Top with the sautéed mushrooms, spreading evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the casserole is set.
- Garnish with grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
