Do you have fond memories of enjoying meals at your grandparents’ or parents’ house? I certainly do, especially when I think about the delicious recipes my Grandma used to make. One recipe that always brings back nostalgic feelings is creamed chipped beef served on toast. Not only is it a quick and affordable dish, but it also tastes absolutely delicious.

Creamed chipped beef has its roots in the military, where it became a popular dish due to its simplicity and ease of preparation. It involves combining dehydrated beef with a creamy white sauce and serving it on a thick slice of toast or a mouthwatering Southern biscuit. The sauce transforms the dried beef, making it wonderfully tender and flavorful.

Southern Living has created an incredibly straightforward recipe for creamed chipped beef and toast, requiring just six ingredients to recreate this classic dish. The creamy white sauce is made by combining flour, butter, and milk, lightly seasoned with pepper to enhance the flavor.

For an extra twist, some people like to add peas to their creamed chipped beef, and it’s a delightful combination indeed! This dish can also be served alongside a side of green bean casserole, elevating your meal to a whole new level.

Yum. Happy cooking!
