I need a new Ground Beef recipe!

[abjcooking]

Ground Beef Wrap-Ups (I got this a long time ago off Calling all Cooks)
It's one of my favorites to fix

1 1/4 lb. lean ground round
2 t. salt
2 (8oz.) packages crescent rolls
1 (8oz.) pack shredded cheddar cheese- or more depending on your taste
1/2 onion

toppings-choose what you like
I use
sour cream
scallions
shredded lettuce
chopped tomatoes
you could also add-olives

Preheat oven to 350. Heat skillet on high. Add beef and salt and brown for a few minutes. Add onion to beef mixture and continue to cook until beef is done and onions are slightly cooked.
Roll out first package of crescent rolls onto a baing sheet. Separate into 4 individual squares. Do not separate into triangles. Place beef mixture into each square leaving room on sides. Sprinkle with cheese. Open second pack of crescent rolls and place same square piece over each wrap and seal together to make a pocket. Sprinkle a little more cheese on top. Place wraps in oven. Bake 13 minutes or until done. Top with desired ingredients.

It's fun to play around with this recipe and change it up some times. A few times I have added canned green peppers.

Bumping this up and hoping that some other folks have some great ground beef recipes to share. I love to cook with ground beef because usually recipes are fast and easy, especially on a work night.

 

[amber]

ground beef and gravy over mashed potatoes ?

mmm, love it. Works well with stew meat too! Comfort food

 

[amber]

From mom, she used to call this "grub" and no exact measurements here, so I have to improvise.


1 lb ground beef
1 can ( about 14-16 oz) whole tomatoes, then crush them
1 onion, chopped, sauteed
about a pound of macaroni
whatever herbs you like, I used sage, and oregano, black pepper, red pepper flakes

Cook the onions, put aside, cook the ground beef, add the onions back into the pot. Add everything else and let it cook to blend the flavors. Simple food, but very good. Grub!

 

[tweedee]

Cabbege Casserole

1 head cabbege, diced, boiled until tender and drained
1 pound ground beef, fried in skillet until browned
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 soup can milk
Salt and Pepper to taste

Mix all ingredients and place in casserole dish. Bake uncovered 1 hour in 350 degree oven. Let rest at least 20 minutes before serving.

Hi! Just tried this out on the buffet this weekend...and people liked it. It was really different I thought.

Cooked ground beef.
Cooked cabbage.
Canned tomatoes.
Kidney Beans
Onion
Garlic
Salt and Pepper
Spice up the juices with any seasoning you like!

I'm sorry...but I don't write recipes for some things. Some things just deserve to be thrown together and wing it!

German Meatballs

Recipe By :Midwest Living Magazine
Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Midwest Living Main Dishes
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 slice bread -- 1" thick
1/2 cup milk -- to 3/4
1/4 cup onion -- finely chopped
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
2 eggs -- beaten
1 pound ground round
1/2 pound ground pork
3 tablespoons parsley -- snipped
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon lemon peel -- finely shredded
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 cups beef broth
1 cup water -- cold
1/2 cup all purpose flour
noodles rice or spaetzle -- cooked hot

In a large mixing bowl, soak bread in enough milk to cover it. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, cook onion in butter till onion is tender, but not brown. Press milk from bread, discarding milk. In large bowl, combine bread, eggs, beef, pork, parsley, salt, Worcestershire sauce, peel, juice, paprika, nutmeg and onion mixture. Mix lightly with your hands. Form into meatballs. In large skillet, bring broth to boiling. Add meatballs. Return to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, for 15 minutes or till meatballs are done. With a slotted spoon, transfer meatballs to a serving bowl and keep warm. Skim fat from cooking liquid. Reserve 2 1/2 cups broth, adding water, if necessary. Mix cold water and flour. Stir into reserved cooking liquid. Cook and stir till bubbly. Cook 1 minute. Pour over meatballs. Serve with hot noodles, rice or spaetzle. Top with additional snipped parsley.

Makes 6 to 8 servings.

Note: Reheat chilled meatballs in a 15x10x1-inch pan in 350ø oven 10 minutes. Or add to gravy and heat through. If you'd like more authentic meatballs, use 12 pound ground round, 1/2 pound ground pork and 1/2 pound ground veal for the meat.

Nutrition Note Reduce fat by using the leanest meat your butcher sells. Substitute 1/2 cup refrigerated egg product for the egg.

My mom used to make exactly the same thing, using spaghetti, and called it "slumgullion". It was so good!

 

[SierraCook]

I like this recipe because it easy and I have all the ingredients in my pantry. Any kind of cheese can be substituted for the cheddar. Other creamy soups could be used in place of the cream of mushroom. I think that a cheddar cheese soup would be really good.

Cheesy Beef Casserole

1 lb. browned hamburger
1 1/2 cups of grated cheddar cheese
2 cups cooked egg noodles
½ cup Parmesan cheese
1 can cream of mushroom soup

Combine hamburger and egg noodles in a large bowl. Add cream of mushroom soup and mix well. Stir in cheddar cheese. Spoon mixture in to a 8x8-inch pan sprayed with cooking spray. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top. Bake in 350 degree oven for 25-30 minutes. Makes 4 to 6 servings.

 

[ronjohn55]

You know how you get into doing the same 'ol, same 'ol.........?
I need a new ground beef recipe. Maybe something without tomatoes/tomato sauce (use it too much) or mushrooms (y'all know they're not my favorite)............ what can you introduce to me?

thanks!

Call me crazy, but I'm pretty positve that you can't make ground beef out of tomatoes or mushrooms...

Ba-dum-bump!

Thank You! Thank You! I'll be here all weekend!

Lots of good ideas - sometimes I go to the freezer and hamburger something is about all I can think of. These will really come in handy. Jkath, I didn't know there was a child anywhere who didn't like cheese!!!!

 

[jkath]

I forgot all about this thread! Thanks for bumping it up twice, guys!!!

ABJ - WOW!

Call me crazy, but I'm pretty positve that you can't make ground beef out of tomatoes or mushrooms...

Ba-dum-bump!

Thank You! Thank You! I'll be here all weekend!


John

Hey - you forgot to remind us to tip our waitresses!

Jkath, I didn't know there was a child anywhere who didn't like cheese!!!!

Yep. It's a pain in the tushie!! However, I do sneak it in, much to the delight of my 10 year old. Don't know if the delight is because there's cheese, or because he knows his brother is eating it...!

I looked to make sure this wasn't already presented, and it isn't.

Meat Pie
Ingredients:
1 lb. Ground Beef browned and rinsed
1 medium sized yellow onion, cut into small chunks
1 tsp. salt
pepper
3 cups peeled and diced potatoes
2 stalks celery, sliced
2 carrots, peeled and diced
1/2 cup water (optional, to be used with the cornstarch)
1 tbs. cornstarch (optional)
2 tbs. butter

Standard Pie crust recipe for two crust pie

Line a pie pan with the first crust. Cook the veggies until just soft. Srain and put it a large bowl. Add the butter and spices. Combine the water and cornstarch and add to the veggies to make a light gravy. Add the ground beef and gently fold everything together. Fill the pie with the mixture. Top with the 2nd crust and bake at 424 until the top crust browns (about 30 minutes). Remove and serve with ketchup, beef gravie, or your favorite condiment.

For variety, you can dice rutabegga and throw that in as well. I'm sure you could add things like green beans, or baby peas if you wanted.

Hint: The filling can be eaten as a main course without the pie crust as well. It's pretty tasty just as is .

Or heat the mix in a baking dish until bubbling, and put canned biscuits on top. Bake at 400 until biscuits are browned.
