Tips & Substitutions
For extra flavor, season the flour with garlic powder or paprika. If you don’t have beef gravy, you can substitute it with chicken gravy or homemade broth. Opt for Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes for this dish, as they hold up well during baking. You can also experiment with adding vegetables like carrots or green beans for a complete meal.
