Re: What is your favorite thing to make with ground beef?

For sure tacos and taco salad.

This is great: Taco Salad for a Crowd (this does feed a crowd, but you can halve the recipe).

This is not a meal, but is a real hit at parties: Bacon Double Cheeseburger Dip.

ETA that we serve this as shown: my local store sells bruschetta bread in a bag. It is a dip and I did say it is not a meal, but it wouldn't be hard to make a meal out of this! It would be good, on occasion (we only make it a couple of times a year), since it isn't what you'd call healthy....but, it sure is good! Everyone loves it.

Taco Pie, Grilled burgers, tacos, enchiladas, chili, meatloaf, vegetable beef soup, casseroles, pizza, spagetti, Manwich, give me a pound or two of ground beef and I'm a happy camper. So is my DH! LOL

You can also cook it, dish it out into portioned baggies and freeze for quick fix meals. Add to taco seasoning, chili, hamburger mac, casseroles, soups, most of the recipes above really. It does cut down the prep time and heat of the stove.
