Notes
Expert Tips:
- Brown your ground beef in batches for best flavor. Too much ground beef in the pan will cause steaming rather than browning.
- Don't like white or yellow onions? Choose a milder substitute like green onions, leeks (or even onion powder).
- Be sure to taste before serving to adjust salt and pepper.
