Recipes Using Ground Beef

August 22, 2011
Stuffed Shells over Ground Beef SauceThis is a special recipe I like, not only because of the foods in it, but also the spices. I am making a point of using more spices, especially cinnamon.

Does anyone have any recipes for ground meat, besides hamburgers, spaghetti, or meatloaf? I want to try something new.

Have you tried casseroles? This is something I throw together when I'm busy and don't want to stand over the stove in the evening. If I have a project I'm going to be working on, I prepare this in the morning, put it in the fridge and pop it in the oven for supper.

Brown hamburger with chopped onion.
Make a box off Mac and Cheese.
Add hamburger mixer to the prepared Mac and Cheese.
Add a can of cream of anything, chicken or mushroom soup, what ever you have on hand.
Add how ever many slices of cheese you want.
I add a little canned stewed tomatoes, only I make sure the tomatoes are good and smooshed.
Add some salt and pepper (I usually add that to the meat as it's browning)

Spray a casserole dish, pour in the mixture. Cube up any stale bread you have, spread the cubes over the mixture, melt some butter and pour it over the bread. Bake at 350 until it's bubbly and the bread and butter has browned.

When I was growing up, we didn't have large freezer bags so we froze our hamburger in a lump wrapped in foil. When we would forget to thaw it out for dinner that night, we would have a boiled dinner. Bring a large pot of seasoned water to a boil. Drop in the frozen hamburger and then some potatoes, onions, and carrots. Bring back to a boil and turn down to a slow boil. When the lump of hamburger looks like the outside is cooked, poke it with a large meat fork occasionally being careful not to break up the lump.

When the veggies are tender and the juices run clear when the hamburger is pierced, the hamburger is done.
Gently remove the hamburger and veggies. Add more water if needed, bring back to a boil and drop a box of spaghetti into the pot. Cook until tender. The hamburger will slice like a meatloaf. I like to add a little Worcestershire sauce or steak sauce to my slice of meat.

We also made chili veggie soup with hamburger. Brown the hamburger and make the soup like normal. Add a chili roll and very small head of chopped cabbage. Very comforting on a cold, winter evening. Good luck.

How about Salisbury Steak? It's one of my family's favorites.
I serve it with mashed potatoes because a nice sauce remains from the golden mushroom soup in the pan. I use very lean beef, so the sauce isn't greasy. Add a side of corn or coleslaw - delish!

This is a link to the one I make, however, there are many, many versions from baked to broiled.

Brown around a pound of ground beef, drain, add a small pack of frozen peas (preferable to defrost them first), a can of mushrooms, and a small can of tomato sauce, mix well, cover, reduce heat, and cook for 15 mins. Serve over rice or in pita bread.

This is very simple and very good. Brown one lb. of ground beef with a chopped onion and then drain the fat. Add some chopped garlic and soy sauce and stir. Add a tablespoon or so of cornstarch to a cup or two of cold water, stir until there are no lumps and add it to the meat.

When the sauce thickens, it is done. Serve with mashed potatoes.

Taco Hash Browns:

1 lb hamburger browned and drained
1 packet taco seasoning added to browned hamburger along with water
16-20 hash brown patties
2 cups cheddar
Optional add ins; sour cream, salsa, jalapenos

I don't let the water completely evaporate from the meat mixture. I start the hash browns cooking in the oven right before I start the hamburger to browning. When hamburger is done and has seasoning added, the hash browns are done. Kinda smash up hash browns in big bowl, dump in the cheese, and then the meat mixture. I don't let the water evaporate so that it can soak into the potatoes. Mix well. Put in bowls then you can add in whatever you want. I like sour cream, but my husband and son go all out and put in sour cream, salsa, jalapenos and whatever else you can find.

Goulash

1-2 lbs ground beef
2 onions quartered & sliced
2 small cans tomato soup
1 box Creamettes Redi Cut Pasta (see note)
Any favorite seasonings

Cook pasta & drain. Brown ground beef & onion with fave seasonings & drain. Mix ground beef, pasta & soup all together.

This is the only spaghetti I knew when growing up. It's very NUMMY.

NOTE: If can't find this pasta I use the macaroni from 2 boxes of any mac n cheese. Save the cheese packet for another dish.

This recipe is for a family of four. You could always make a smaller one by just having one can of sauce and one can of crescent rolls.

This is a page about mashed potato and hamburger casserole. Casseroles topped with mashed potatoes are almost infinitely variable, with a simple change of ingredients. This is a good way to use leftovers.

Looking for a recipe someone told me about but can't remember all of it. It has hamburger, cheese and egg in it and is layered on toast and baked in the oven, if I remember right. Does this ring a bell to anyone?

Have you tried www.allrecipes.com? You can search for recipes by ingredients. I found quite a few similar to what you're after. The first time I searched, I didn't find anything except burgers, but then instead of using the word hamburger, I used the word pork sausage. In fact, I made the easy sausage strata for Christmas morning breakfast, and it was easy AND good.
Good luck!

Years ago, I was taught a recipe by a single male friend he called "dogfood":

12 slices toast
1 lb hamburger
cream of mushroom soup
2 eggs
6 slices cheese

fry hamburger (w/ diced onions & peppers, if desired); stir in 1 or 2 tbs mustard. Layer 6 slices toast in a 9 x 13 pan; distribute burger mixture evenly over. Top w/ cheese, then other 6 toast. Mix soup, eggs, and about 1/2 can milk together. Pour over layers, trying to coat each one evenly. Cover w/ foil & bake 350 about 45 min. Uncover (add more cheese on top if wanted) & bake 15 min (or so) till brown on top.
