Category   Entrees - Maindishes
Sub Category   None
Servings   2

Ingredients
1 Medifast Cream Soup, any flavor
1 Medifast Scrambled Eggs
2½ oz extra-lean ground beef
½ cup beef broth
1/3 cup water
¼ cup moderate-fat shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1½ teaspoons garlic, minced
1 tablespoon onion, chopped
1 tablespoon tomato paste
 
1 teaspoon olive oil
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon cumin
A pinch of cayenne pepper
Non stick cooking spray

Instructions
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Add onions and saute until soft and translucent, about 3 minutes. Combine garlic, tomato paste, cumin, and cayenne pepper in a small mixing bowl. Add garlic mixture and saute an additional minute. Add ground beef and cooked until cooked through. Add beef broth, bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until all liquid is cooked off. Put beef mixture in a bowl and cool to room temperature. While beef mixture is cooling, preheat oven to 425 F. Blend cream soup and scrambled eggs until it creates a fine powder. Roll mixture out flat, about 1/8 inch thick, on a cutting board. Cut out 3” rounds using a biscuit cutter – should make 3 full rounds plus an additional with the excess. Coat a cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray and lay out rounds. Add cheese to beef mixture.
Scoop out equal portions of the beef and cheese mixture into each of the rounds. Wet the outer edges of the rounds with your finger, fold in half and press the edges together. Crimp the edges with the tines of a fork to keep secure. Bake for 20 minutes or until slightly crispy.
