Creamed ground beef
(comfort food masquerading as a diet recipe from the Alli website)

(recipe was for *one* serving, so, of course, I had to scale it up by a factor of four. Please. One?)

12 oz lean ground beef
8 tbsp choppped green onion
8 tbsp margarine
8 tbsp flour
32 oz milk
2 cups frozen peas
salt and pepper to taste

Brown beef and onions, drain well, set aside.

Melt margarine in skillet. Slowly add flour, whisking continuously. When all the flour has been incorporated, making the roux, turn the heat off.

Slowly add the milk to the roux. It will become quite thin but thicken upon reheating. Once it is all added, making the gravy, turn the heat back on medium. Add the meat mixture and the peas. Salt and pepper to taste.

Serve over toast. Delicious.
