    Recipe Introduction


    This is a basic ground meat mix that can be used in many casseroles and recipes.

    List of Ingredients




    5 pounds ground meat (beef or turkey)
    2 cups celery, chopped
    1 clove garlic, minced
    2 cups onion, chopped
    1 cup green pepper, diced
    1/2 teaspoon pepper
    1 teaspoon salt (optional)

    Recipe



    Brown meat in a large pot. Drain. Stir in celery, garlic, onion, green pepper, salt and pepper; cover and simmer about 10 minutes until vegetables are tender but not soft. You can use this mixture immediately during your cooking session or freeze in two-cup portions for later use.

    Suggested Uses (be creative):

    Taco Potatoes:

    Easy Taco Salads:
    Follow instructions for taco mixture; place a layer of corn chips or tortilla chips on plate; spoon taco mixture over chips; add layer of shredded lettuce; add diced tomatoes, sliced green onions, sliced black olives, sour cream and salsa.

    Sloppy Joes:
    In a large skillet, place two cups Ground Meat Mix, one (10 3/4 ounce) can tomato soup, two tablespoons brown sugar, and one teaspoon prepared mustard. Stir. Cover and simmer ten minutes. Serve ladled onto hamburger buns.
