We don't use ground beef anymore. However, we do use ground extra lean venison and elk and lots of ground turkey and chicken breasts. This is a great easy recipe to use ground meats!
1 lb ground lean meat (your choice)
1/2 onion, diced
2 cans reduced sodium beef broth
1 t pepper
1 16 oz carton fat free sour cream
whole grain pasta or brown rice or mashed potatoes
Brown the meat and the onions in a large frying pan. Feel free to sneak in other veggies if you want - shredded zucchini is really easy to hide in this recipe! Once meat is completely cooked, pour beef broth over the top and bring to a simmer. Sitr in sour cream and pepper over medium low heat. When everything is completely combined and warmed through, serve over pasta, rice or potatoes. Another great addition to this recipe is fresh mushrooms if your family likes them!
