Creamed chipped beef is a dish made with dried beef in a creamy white sauce.

Serving it on toast provides a simple and satisfying meal.

Dried beef has a unique flavor, but you can substitute browned, drained hamburger meat for a different twist.

Substitute cornstarch for all-purpose flour and serve the dish with gluten-free toast or biscuits.

While traditional recipes use dried beef, you can experiment with cooked and shredded chicken or turkey.

Adjust the cayenne pepper to your liking or omit it for a milder flavor.

You can prepare the white sauce in advance, but it’s best to add the beef and warm it through just before serving.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days.

Freezing may alter the texture, but you can freeze it in airtight containers for up to 1-2 months.

Consider adding sautéed mushrooms, diced onions, or a sprinkle of fresh herbs for extra flavor.

You can reduce sodium by choosing low-sodium dried beef and adjusting salt content.
