Most often, the phrase “meat and potatoes” means a lack of eating adventure. A “meat and potatoes” person shies away from green vegetables, plant-based proteins like tofu, and spices.

As someone who embraces a diverse diet and certainly doesn’t want to waste her time on bland food, I am biased in the opposite direction. How could meat and potatoes possibly be anything but

Well my meat and potatoes friends, I hereby admit the fault of my prejudice. It turns out that you’ve been onto something all along.

It’s healthy in moderation (beef is packed with protein, iron, zinc, and vitamin B12) and when used in recipes that incorporate other important food groups, especially vegetables (like in Ground Beef Stroganoff).

Until this simple skillet recipe came along, it didn’t occur to me to cook beef with something as basic as white potatoes, because I assumed the results would be ho-hum.

Easy Dinner Ideas With Ground Beef • Longbourn Farm

Here’s another Chinese take-out recipe that you can easily make at home. Mongolian Beef is one of the most popular dishes on many Chinese food restaurants in North America.

As with many dishes we associate with Chinese food in this part of the world, it has almost nothing to do with authentic Chinese cuisine and is purely a North American invention.

Nonetheless people enjoy this dish for the delicate balance of sweet and salty which only the best restaurants get right. I’ve tried many recipes before and to my taste they fall on either the too sweet or too salty side of the fence.

Quick And Easy Beef Recipes

Still, tastes vary and you may be more inclined to the sweet or salty side of the scale with a recipe like this one.

My suggestion is to first try this Mongolian Beef recipe as written. You can then adjust the brown sugar to add more sweetness or the soy sauce to add more saltiness the next time you make it.

The recipe is also very adaptable to any vegetables that you have on hand that you’d like to add to it. Steamed carrots, broccoli, snow peas or cauliflower would all be great as well.

Ground Beef Casserole Recipe

While many recipes you may find for Mongolian Beef do not add any spicy element, I actually do prefer it with a little bit of a kick. However, if this is not to your taste, the recipe works perfectly well without the added chili paste or flakes.

If you want to avoid the frying method, this recipe works well as a stir fry too. See the note in the recipe for those instructions.
