12 ground beef dinners that aren’t boring 🤎


Hey friends❣️

It's no secret that beef is pricy right now. A lot of things are, actually. So while steak might be off the menu for a while, I'm doubling down on ground beef. It stars in so many of my favorite meals from meatballs and burgers to soup!

I love to make delicious food, photograph it, and write about it, but mostly, I just love to EAT. Isn’t that what it’s all about?

Food should be fun!
