Ground beef is the most popular meat used today. Besides hamburgers, ground beef is my favorite ingredient to use in main dishes and casseroles. Included are recipes for main dishes such as meatloaf, meatballs, skillet meals, casseroles, soups and sandwiches. With 100 recipes, you will be sure to find a family friendly recipe for homestyle meals. Most recipes are quick, easy and use everyday pantry ingredients. Casseroles are perfect for nights when time is short. Casseroles are a great way to stretch your food budget and are great when you have unexpected company. Add fresh or leftover ingredients and you can have dinner ready in no time.
I am an American living overseas, and every time a recipe calls for canned soup. I must make it from scratch. Canned beans and Velveeta Cheese, it's the same problem. This book has some good ideas, but I find the use of canned this and canned that not cooking but more dumping. I will try many of these, but I will make major changes in ingredients. I understand these were written for the American market, but dumping a whole bunch of things into a pan and heating them ,then adding cheese is not necessarily cooking.
Great recipes! From a simple family meal to an elegant dinner this book has it all. Easy to follow along, explains all steps. I've tried a couple recipe and had sucess.
