50 Ways To Use Ground Beef

Teresa Ambra

50 Ways To use Ground Beef offers all kinds of possibilities! Ground beef has been a staple at our house since the beginning of our marriage. My kids loved eating anything with ground beef when they were growing up. (Including Hamburger Helper, ick!). I think it was always easier for them to chew as young children, and they just got used to it. Plus, it was a lot cheaper and a great way to stretch the food budget. 🙂

Here’s a collection of over 50 Ways To Use Ground Beef. I’ve included casseroles, meatballs, meatloaves, Tex-Mex, pasta, chili & soup recipes and even salads. While there are certainly thousands of ways to use ground beef, these are some of the tastiest our family has ever tried through the years.

If you’re tired of using the same recipes day in and day out, give some of these delicious entrees a try. Some of the pasta recipes are gluten free, and there are even a few healthy recipes. Although most of the recipes have too high of a cheese content to be truly anything but comfort food. Ah, yes, but comfort food they certainly are!

50 Ways To Use Ground Beef will surely get your taste buds going. 🙂 And if you enjoy cooking as much as eating, these recipes will do the trick.
