Creating a delicious dinner for your family doesn't have to be complicated! Ground beef is an extremely versatile ingredient that can be used to whip up a variety of tasty recipes.
And trust me, you can do so much more with ground beef than just preparing tacos for dinner. Although tacos are a great idea for dinner!

What to Add to Ground Beef for Flavor
One complaint about ground beef is lacking in flavor for some recipes. That can be easily solved by making sure you season the beef as you cook the recipe...not just at the beginning but also season at the end of the cooking process.
As the meat browns and cooks the seasoning can evaporate along with the steam the meat releases, so taste and season being careful not to taste any uncooked beef!
How to Brown Ground Beef
I wrote a post a few years ago on ground beef with tips on freezing, defrosting and browning ground beef. There's even a tip on how to quickly defrost ground beef when you forget to take it out of the freezer and need it for dinner.
Once you have your main recipe for dinner selected, pick a side dish to serve with the recipes listed above. Side dishes could include potatoes or rice along with one or two veggies. A tossed salad with homemade ranch salad dressing is always nice too.

Wow Lois. I just put a shortcut on my desktop so I can come back to these later. I might even try the tacos; something I have not eaten since my college days. While I may only be cooking for one, I really appreciate "easy and delicious" meals that I can whip up in a hurry. Thanks!
