Ellen's Beef Manhattans

This comes from a friend and is an old fashioned dish and was common in school cafeterias. Years ago, utilizing leftovers an another meal was very common as well as adding some items to extend the leftovers further. The beauty of this recipe, is the leftovers. I have written this to use leftovers. If you need to make mashed potatoes I have a shortcut in the Recipe Notes section or make mashed potatoes your preferred way. Link to the shortcut is listed in the Recipe Notes section.

Cowboy Stew

Ground beef, bacon, and baked beans, sounds delicious! I used my homemade baked beans for this but if wanting to use canned, that is stated as well. Great comfort meal. Links to the Shortcuts are listed in the Recipe Notes section.

Servings 5 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 250 grams bacon, (1/2 lb)
  • 500 grams ground beef, (1 lb)
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 medium potatoes, scrubbed and diced
  • 4 cups baked beans, or 2 15 oz cans, (Shortcut)
  • 1/3 cup BBQ sauce, (Shortcut)
  • 1/4 teaspoon liquid smoke

Instructions
 

  • In a large pot (I like to use my pressure cooker pot) add the baked beans. I used homemade and they were quite thick so I added 1 cup of water as well. Bring that to a simmer.
  • In a pot add the diced potatoes and cover with water by 2 inches, bring to a boil and cook the potatoes until just fork tender. Drain, and add to the baked beans.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, in a large non stick pan, cook the bacon until near crispy. Remove the bacon and drain on paper towels. When cooled, chop into bite size pieces and add the bacon to the baked beans.
  • For the bacon fat in the pan, drain off most of it, then add the ground beef and onion. Cook the beef until no longer pink and the onion is soft. Drain and add to the baked beans.
  • Add the BBQ sauce and liquid smoke to the pot and stir into the beans, bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer.
  • Simmer the stew for 10-15 minutes. While simmering consider making some biscuits to ladle the stew over or heating some nice dinner rolls to go with this. Corn bread muffins would be perfect as a side as well as fried corn.
  • Serve and enjoy.

  • 1 clove garlic, smashed and minced
  • 350 grams fresh button mushrooms, sliced, (¾ lb), or 1 can, drained and sliced

  • Heat a pot of salted water to boiling, then add egg noodles and cook until tender for the desired number of servings, once tender, drain and set aside. Feel free to use mashed potatoes in place of the egg noodles, your choice.
  • While the noodles are cooking, heat a large non stick pan on medium heat and when hot, add the ground beef, onion, and garlic. Break up the meat a little, goal is a good chunky beef sauce. Cook the beef until no longer pink. Drain off any fat.

Notes

Fair cost per serving depending on where the beef is sourced. I use local raised beef and grind myself for savings.

Hamburger Helper Shortcuts

Hamburger Helper Shortcuts

I grew up on Hamburger Helper, and many times the hamburger (hamburger meat for all my friends in the deep south of the US) was substituted with ground venison. My early years in the Navy, my wife and I made Hamburger Helper to stretch those dollars between paydays. This boxed kind basically hamburger, pasta (maybe potatoes), spices, milk, water, load of salt and sugar, and a load of preservatives. So I did a bit of research on the internet and found a site that replicated all of the dishes available. The basic instruction is brown the ground beef and drain, then add in the ingredients for each version you wish then simmer. Enjoy. Links to the shortcuts are listed in the Recipe Notes section.

Notes

Low cost.
Shortcuts: Italian Seasoning, Sour Cream.
Notes: 1. If using true Thai chili powder, cut the amount back by 1/3 to 1/2 as it is quite hotter than chili powder in the US. 2. The salt and sugar are OPTIONAL! I have made several of these and you can certainly leave out the sugar. Salt is used in the boxed version of this much the way McDonald's uses salt, sugar is used in the box version much the way cereals in the US are made, to get you to not like the meal, but love the meal, and buy more. When I make these, I do not add sugar, but I do add salt, a touch less than what is stated.

Ingredients
  

  • 350 grams ground beef, (3/4 lb)
  • 1/4 cup onion, diced
  • 1 clove garlic, smashed and finely minced
  • 1/2 cup tomato sauce, OR make from a shortcut

To Serve, as desired

  • salsa, OR make from a shortcut
  • sour cream, OR make from a shortcut
  • guacamole

Instructions
 

  • In a large non stick pan, cook the ground beef and break up with a spatula as you cook, when no longer pink, drain the fat then add the onion and garlic and cook until the onion is soft.
  • Add the cumin, chilies, and tomato sauce to the pan and mix in, simmer on low heat for 5 minutes, stirring often. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • In a large, flat pan, cast iron would be perfect, heat a little oil and warm each tortilla for a minute or two on each side, this makes them very soft so you can roll them.
  • Lay a tortilla on your work surface and add some beef filling at about the point mid way between the edge and the center, make a line of filling across the tortilla.
  • Roll the tortilla tightly, goal is a nice cigar sized taquito. Repeat this for each tortilla.
  • Heat about 1/3 inch of oil in pan, when the oil is hot, quickly fry the taquitos to brown them, light golden color is the goal, about 1 minute each.
  • Serve with dipping sauces as you desire, salsa, sour cream, and guacamole would be great choices.
