1c of pre-cooked ground beef, frozen until needed, can go a long way:
Besides the two options mentioned in the previous post, you can also use it to:
- Add to pasta sauce and serve over spaghetti
- Use to fill tacos; along with other fillings you have
- Add it with a can of tomatoes, leftover veggies, and some beef broth to make hamburger soup
- Thaw it in microwave while mixing some instant mashed potatoes. Then layer the following in a 8x11 pan: ground beef, can of corn, hot mashed potatoes, cheese sprinkled on top (optional) Heat to melt cheese and serve.
- Cook some macaroni while defrosting cooked frozen ground beef in microwave. Add the following together: macaroni, can of peas, ground beef, cream of mushroom soup, a little milk (1-2 Tbsp). Season with a dash of garlic powder. Serve with biscuits or carrot sticks.
- The possibilities are endless, really. It would be nice to hear some entries on this one by our readers. (Hint, hint.)

It works great in stuffed peppers, too. I use a boxed mix of long grain and wild rice ( when I can find it on sale) prepared according to package and add the precooked meat. Dunk the pepper halves in the pot of boiling water for 30 secs. Fill with meat mixture and top with cheese. Bake at 350 til cheese is melted.
