I love to make meatloaf, but my kids prefer I take a different approach with my ground beef. They love a dish I threw together one night out of desperation because I had used up most of our weekly groceries. The meal was a hit and now I find myself being asked to prepare it quite often.
You will need the following ingredients to make this meal:
- 1 lb. ground beef
- 1 small onion chopped
- 4 oz. chicken broth
- 2 oz. sour cream
- 1 can mixed vegetables
- ¼ tsp. garlic powder
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of pepper
Follow these steps to make your ground beef and vegetables dish:
Step 1:
Brown the ground beef in a large skillet. Once the beef is no longer pink, drain out any water or fat that is in the pan.
Step 2:
Add the onions and cook for 4 to 5 minutes.
Step 3:
Pour in the chicken broth and sour cream and stir until they are combined together. Then add the can of mixed vegetables. Stir again so that everything is well mixed.
Step 4:
Sprinkle the garlic powder, salt, and pepper into the pan. Stir one final time, but continue cooking the food until the vegetables have become as hot as the meat.
Step 5:
Serve in a bowl with some biscuits or French bread.
Tips:
You do not have to use canned vegetables if you have fresh. The girls and I prefer fresh vegetables when we have them, but they are usually consumed by the end of the week. Just make sure you cook the fresh vegetables before adding them to this dish, as the recipe calls for vegetables that are already soft.
