Ingredients

  • 4 medium baking potatoes
  • 1 lb. lean (at least 80%) ground beef
  • 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 cups frozen broccoli florets (from 12-oz bag)
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, cut into bite-sized strips
  • 1 (10-oz.) container (1 1/4 cups) refrigerated Alfredo sauce
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil, if desired

Steps

  • 1
    Pierce potatoes with fork several times; place on microwave-safe plate. Microwave on High for 6 to 8 minutes or until fork-tender, turning once.
  • 2
    Meanwhile, in 12-inch nonstick skillet, break up ground beef; sprinkle with seasoned salt and pepper. Cook over medium-high heat until beef is thoroughly cooked, stirring frequently. Drain.
  • 3
    Stir in broccoli, bell pepper and Alfredo sauce. Reduce heat to low; cook about 6 minutes or until broccoli is crisp-tender, stirring occasionally.
  • 4
    Place potatoes on individual serving plates. Cut potatoes in half lengthwise; mash slightly in skin. Top each potato half with beef mixture; sprinkle with basil.

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Roasted bell peppers from a jar or the deli can be substituted for the red bell pepper. Drain them well before adding.
  • tip 2
    If you use reduced-fat Alfredo sauce and 93% extra-lean ground beef, you can cut the fat by about 21 grams and reduce the calories to 410 per serving.
