I love cheese. This is no secret. I love meat. Also no secret.

I love nutrient-dense ingredients that pack a punch without sacrificing melt-in-your-mouth flavor. Someone print me a t-shirt.

Meat. Veggies. Cheese. And sneaky protein thanks to one of my favorite ingredient substitutions of all time – plain Greek yogurt.

Greek yogurt is a protein-rich substitute that packs a punch. You can find more recipes with this secret ingredient in my zucchini carrot cake muffins, chocolate banana muffins, and even our favorite pancake recipe.

Sit your family down for a delicious meal that you can feel fabulous about and enjoy the flavor at the same time.

The key to this recipe is drying the zucchini and then draining the dish after it is made if necessary. Let me know what you think in the comments!!

Bon appetit!

Ingredients

  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 lb lean beef, ground
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 zucchini, sliced
  • 1 c smoked gouda (4 oz)
  • 1/2 c 1% milk
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 3/4 c nonfat plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 c shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions

Slice the zucchini and sprinkle with salt. Place all the zucchini slices in a colander over the sink. Allow to dehydrate while preparing the rest of the dish. *Do NOT skip this step or your dish will be very watery*
Saute the chopped onion and garlic in olive oil in a large skillet. Add the ground beef and brown. Set aside.
Warm the milk and butter in a medium saucepan until bubbly and thick.
Remove from the heat and slowly stir in the shredded smoked gouda and the plain Greek yogurt until mixture is relatively smooth.
Pat the zucchini dry and place on the bottom of a greased 8×8 baking dish.
Add the beef and then slowly pour the sauce over the dish. Top with the shredded cheddar cheese. Bake at 400F for 35 minutes or until the cheese is brown and bubbly.
