1 - 1.5 lbs. ground beef or ground turkey
1 can condensed cream soup (i.e. chicken, mushroom, celery)
8 oz. cheese (#1 cone)
Variety of vegetables
cabbage
potatoes
onions
carrots
zucchini
celery
spinach

Directions
Using 3 Qt Saucepan & 2.5 Qt Perforated Basket *degrease your ground meat. Once cooked through, pour out the water in the bottom of the 3 Qt Saucepan and transfer ground meat into it. Using the #2 or #3 cone, cut and layer as many vegetables as you wish on top of the cooked meat. Above are just a few examples of vegetables... you decide what to use when creating your own "stuff" casserole! Add one large can of condensed cream soup, covering all the vegetables. Sprinkle cheese on top and cover with lid. Cook over medium heat until Vapo-Valve clicks, then reduce heat to low for approximately 30 minutes. For best results allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving.

*If using ground beef, degrease the meat by cooking it in the 2.5 Qt Perforated or Culinary Basket over 1/2 inch of water in the 3 Qt. Saucepan on medium-high temperature. While cooking the fats & oils will drip into the water instantly making your meat leaner!
