I need some creative inspiration. I don't want to make baked ziti...I've been making that way too much lately. But, I have ground beef thawed, and unless I can come up with something, I'm making hamburgers.
-
I made taco meat and froze it in portions!
-
Meatloaf. I made it in a cupcake tin so I froze single (baby) serve portions.
-
I made tacos last night. What about meatloaf? Or a skillet dish, similar to Hamburger Helper but using your own igredients? Stuffed peppers?
-
I made cheeseburger fried rice!
Basically ground meat with sauteed onions and mushrooms. Then I make a sauce with (and yes this sounds nutty) soy sauce, ketchup, bbq sauce, and a little mustard. Top with really tiny diced pickle, diced tomato and cheese. Serve over rice.
It's probably my husband's favorite thing I make. -
Spaghetti!
-
@MrsTiz: ditto, spaghetti on Tuesday!
-
I think meatloaf? Maybe tacos?
-
@lindseykaye: That sounds good! I have all that except mushrooms, but I don't like them anyways, so maybe I'll try that.
-
Hmm, I think I made taco pie last. Other ideas: meatballs + pasta, burgers, tater tot casserole
-
@Dandelion: Mushrooms are totally optional! I like to have some veg in there with the meat so if you have something else on hand that you like go for it! I've put in peppers before, and zucchini (even though I wouldn't put zucchini on a burger).
-
@lindseykaye: That sounds so yummy!!!!
-
I don't remember but making tacos tomorrow for Fiesta Friday!
-
I made ground turkey shepards pie with a sweet potato topping. It was pretty good!
-
Tacos, stuffed peppers, shepherds pie
-
I made meatloaf last night.
-
@Dandelion: Last night we made ground turkey lettuce wraps! Delicious and can be made with any meat
-
Chili!
-
It's starting to get cold here, so we made chili last night!
-
Tacos or quesadillas!
-
Chilli!
-
Tacos! Although we eat tacos at least twice a week! We loooove them!

I just made ground beef with carrots , onions and rice. Super yummy.
-
Spinach rice! It's quick, easy, and tasty.
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 lb ground beef
3/4 cup white rice
1 1/2 cups water
2-3 tablespoons tomato paste (I always keep a tube in the fridge and just give it a couple good squeezes)
1 bag of fresh baby spinach or 3/4 bag of frozen spinach
1 clove garlic, minced (optional)
Salt and pepperSauté the onion in a bit of oil in a large skillet or sauté pan.. When it softens, add the beef and cook until its browned. If there's a lot of grease, drain it off. Add the rice, water, and tomato paste (and garlic, if using). Stir well and bring to a boil. Add spinach, cover, turn down the heat to low, and cook until the rice is tender, about 20 minutes. Stir to incorporate spinach, add salt and pepper to taste, and serve!

I made tator tot casserole and spaghetti last week
-
I made a stir fry last night with ground turkey, eggplant, zucchini and red pepper.
-
I'm making this tonight: stuffed pepper casserole

I'm making ground turkey lettuce cups but without the lettuce. Going to eat it with a side of sautéed kale instead.
-
Tonight's dinner was stir-fried ground beef with oyster mushrooms, peas, chopped kale, water chestnuts, in oyster sauce.
Other ingredients included: ginger powder, onion powder, garlic powder, chili flakes, chicken bouillon, a few drops of Maggi, black pepper. I usually serve it over rice or rice noodles, but I was too tired, so we ate it with lettuce (wraps). It would have been good with glass noodles mixed in for a fuller wrap.
-
@yin: We're totally in sync with the wraps and kale!
-
Stuffed acorn squash with ground turkey, rice, veggies and a bit of cinnamon - yumm, comfort food.
-
We eat this recipe called A Thinner Mexican Dinner all the time. It's soooooo good! It's like a taco salad or deconstructed tacos.

spaghetti and homemade sauce is my ground beef go to!
-
We're taco salad addicts in this house.
-
@PurplePeony: oh, that sounds good!
I think I'll favorite this thread cause there's a few good ideas!
@lindseykaye: We tried it and liked it! I went a tad crazy with the BBQ sauce, but I'm sure I'll remember for next time to take it easy. Is it a Rachel Ray recipe? Just wondering, cause it has all the qualities of one of her recipes.
If not, you should submit it to her!@Sapphiresun: Taco salad sounds good...I haven't had it in years!
@Ash: I like stuffed peppers, but my MIL loves them, and when we lived with my inlaws for a few months, she made them way too much! Maybe once it gets out of my system, I'll make them, though.
@hellobeeboston: that sounds interesting!

Ditto on the chilli!
