So put a pot on the stove, let this incredible, healthy soup simmer, and get ready to slurp up every drop from your bowl. Recipe: All-In-One Spaghetti. Only 15 minutes of prep and just one pan to clean makes this homemade pasta sauce labor-light, but it tastes like it was made with a secret recipe handed down in your family for generations. It has the basics: ground beef, onions, and garlic, but also has a hint of sugar for sweetness and a touch of chili powder for spice.
That makes everything nice, and you'll think so to as you devour this delicious sauce on plate after plate of pasta. Top it with grated Parmesan cheese, and garnish it with fresh parsley for even more subtle, delicate flavors. Now eat! Recipe: Easy Skillet Tacos. Tacos are a great go-to weeknight meal, and these fantastic tacos make family dinners easy. We'll have you mixing up your own simple taco seasoning—these tacos get their flavor from cumin and chili powder without the additional sodium often found in packaged seasoning mixes—and you'll love the full, rich flavor of it with your ground beef.
For these skillet tacos, we suggest you cover them with Cheddar cheese and cilantro, making every bite a cheesy, gooey, delicious sensation. Then, top off your crunchy tacos with any of our delicious toppings: try shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, salsa, or sour cream—or even better, just pile them all on. Recipe: Chili in a Biscuit Bowl. Chili is one of our favorite dishes, and few things are more Southern than biscuits, so you can only imagine how delicous it is to taste the two sensations together.
If you want to bring the two together on the table, try serving chili in a biscuit bowl for a new presentation of an old favorite. This recipe has ground beef spiced with red pepper, flavored with onion and bell pepper, and stewed with kidney beans: in short, a delicious chili ready to soak that biscuit bowl with fantastic tastes.
This recipe even creates edible dishes that you devour when you're done—and few things could be better than that. Casseroles are fantastic one-dish dinners, and our Tomato 'n' Beef Casserole with Polenta Crust brings together a range of delicious flavors in a single mouthful.

Recipe: Party-Perfect Meatballs. These meatballs can be your ground beef go-to finger food at any time of year. That's the reason we call them our Party-Perfect Meatballs.
To make ahead, prepare meatballs through Step 2, and freeze in zip-top plastic freezer bags for up to 1 month. To reheat from frozen, pick up with Step 3 and warm the meatballs in the sauce over low heat. The sauce can be kept in an airtight container for up to three days if making ahead.
For serving, keep them warm in your slow cooker, in a Dutch oven over low heat, or in a fondue pot. Recipe: Fiesta Salad. The Fiesta Salad begins with lean ground beef and adds in every possible delicious delight to create your favorite Mexican-inspired supper.
Our recipe even includes ground pork for a little extra zest. You can build your salad with mixed salad greens, fresh avocado, and a choice of cheeses including pico de gallo and sharp Cheddar cheese. If you'd like to serve this party-style, you can even save time by setting up a fix-your-own buffet for this delicious, quick-fix supper ground beef recipe. Recipe: Meaty Cheesy Manicotti. Manicotti is a delicious way to enjoy pasta, meat, and cheese in a single bite without having to twirl it on a fork.
This recipe mixes ground round with hot Italian sausage, making for a rich, spicy, meaty base. The wine and Parmesan cheese sauce is creamy, velvety and, thanks to the wine, just a little tart—a nice counterpoint to the boldness of the ground beef and sausage combination which was already made just a little gooey by the mozzarella blended in.
An 8-ounce package of manicotti shells has 14 shells; a couple may break, so we count on using 12 shells in this recipe. Recipe: Smothered Enchiladas. Enchiladas are wraps for when your appetite means business. These Smothered Enchiladas are ground beef-filled tortillas that you will enjoy served over Spanish rice and covered in a rich, creamy sauce.
You can expect just the right amount of heat from a single small can of chopped green chiles-half of which you'll mix in with the ground beef. The other half will be part of that delicious sauce. Since these are so simple to make, they are a great addition to your quick-fix suppers. They make a filling and delicious weeknight dinner. Eat them fresh out of the oven, garnished with salsa and sour cream.
Recipe: Chili-Topped Potatoes. Eating a stuffed potato is like bringing an edible dish to the table, and this recipe for Chili-Topped Potatoes, with its delicious ground chuck, is so good you'll look at that bag of potatoes like it is a place setting for twelve.
This recipe packs meat, corn, beans, and onions into a hearty spud. These will also have a little heat thanks to a can of diced green chiles. You'll be able to cut the heat a little by dousing your potato in some cool ranch dressing. Whatever you like on your spud, it will only take this great dish and make it better, so be sure to finish off this one-dish meal with your favorite potato toppings.
These zesty meatballs are a true taste of the Southwest, with poblano peppers, corn chips, lime juice, and red chile enchilada sauce. Prepared with ground chuck, these are a rich, delicious way to fill a tortilla full of flavor. Let guests doctor their own plates with crunchy, colorful toppings including Cotija cheese, radishes, and avocado. If you prefer to prepare early, these also freeze beautifully, so you can always have some on hand.
Recipe: One-Pot Pasta. Making ravioli doesn't have to be an all-day affair—it should just taste like it might have been. This recipe takes all the richness and flavor of ground beef and makes it the star of a simple dinner classic that you'll be able to make any day of the week. A jar of your favorite store-bought pasta sauce—we used tomato-basil—and refrigerated ravioli are mixed with plenty of fresh veggies and garlic to make this pasta a speedy and delicious quick-fix dinner.
Recipe: Pepper Relish Mini Meatloaves. This mini meatloaf recipe blends the savory flavor of a top-quality ground round with the zest of a spicy-hot vegetable juice.

Make this Texas Friday-night-football favorite your Tuesday supper—or enjoy it any night of the week, in any season. Recipe: Bacon, Peach, and Basil Burgers. Nothing says summer in the South quite like peaches, and of course we think everything goes better with bacon, so the Bacon, Peach, and Basil Burgers are a fresh-off-the-fire sensation.
We recommend ground sirloin here because it's lean, which causes fewer flare-ups on the grill. Soft and creamy goat cheese, an unexpected addition, adds just the right amount of smooth flavor to these amazingly balanced burgers. Recipe: Southwestern Meatloaf. Use crushed whole grain tortilla chips instead of plain breadcrumbs to flavor this juicy meatloaf and help it hold its shape as it bakes. We love chipotle salsa for its medium heat and smoky notes, but any salsa and heat level will give the meatloaf fantastic south-of-the-border flavor.
Mixing in cheddar cheese also gives this meatloaf extra bite, so be prepared for sensational flavors. Make a tasty meatloaf sandwich, or serve a slice alongside Tex-Mex Mashers. You simply can't get any easier than this casserole recipe. This 5-ingredient casserole features convenient, frozen hash brown potatoes, a can of Sloppy Joe sauce, and can of chili.

Or, you can eat what you need and freeze the rest. Skip takeout and make this easy ground beef stir-fry that's ready in just 20 minutes, way faster than delivery would make it to your door. A tip from the Test Kitchen: Ground chuck has more fat than ground sirloin, so it cooks up extra crispy without drying out. The tasty juices are soaked up by the rice to ensure there's not a single bland bite. This ground beef and broccoli makes it easy to get the kids to eat their veggies.
Recipe: Beefy Butternut Squash Pasta. This ground beef pasta recipe is a delicious way to use fresh butternut squash this fall. You only need one skillet to get this simple pasta supper on the table. If you have leftovers, our Test Kitchen recommends adding more chicken broth and reheating in a skillet not the microwave , so the pasta doesn't become chewy.
Recipe: Sheet Pan Nachos. These ground beef nachos are the most delicious weeknight dinner or game day snack that the whole family will love. If you're on dish duty, this is the perfect dinner for you. Simply cover the entire sheet pan in tin foil, and voila—you don't have even have to wash it afterward.

The only thing we fancied-up a bit for this recipe? Adding a few homemade Sweet-Spicy Pickles for just the right amount of tang and zing. Instead of rolling individual enchiladas, throw this one-dish casserole together with incredible ease.
This ground beef casserole only calls for a few ingredients, so it's a budget-friendly win for weeknights. To lighten it up and cut a few calories and a little fat, sub ground sirloin for ground chuck, fat-free cream of mushroom soup, light sour cream, and reduced-fat sharp Cheddar cheese. Recipe: Cottage Pie with Potato Crust.
Prepared mashed potatoes will help you whip up this ground beef cottage pie so fast. Our Test Kitchen recommends making a double batch so you can freeze half for later. Simply prepare through step three, then wrap the top of the casserole dish in aluminum foil before popping into the freezer. You'll want to allow it to thaw completely in the fridge, a process that will likely take 24 hours. In order to avoid excessive browning, add a shield of aluminum foil to the top for the last 25 minutes of baking.
For testing purposes, we used Simply Potatoes frozen mashed potatoes from Crystal Farms, but you can use your favorite frozen variety. The down-home classic just got an elegant upgrade with Italian sausage, sundried tomatoes, and fresh basil. The combination of ground chuck and spiced sausage adds so much flavor, and a sundried tomato mixture is way more delicious than the old-school ketchup-only topping.
The best part about this ground beef recipe? It comes together in your slow cooker. Recipe: Hamburger Stew. We love a reimagined classic, and this cozy stew has everything you love about a good burger. This oh-so-comforting soup starts with ground chuck and includes store-bought staples like frozen veggies and canned tomatoes.
To really load this stew with hamburger flavor, our Test Kitchen professionals added ketchup and dry mustard, but the hamburger bun croutons really take it over the top. Since day-old bread makes for great croutons, this is an ideal recipe to throw together with leftovers. Recipe: Instant Pot Spaghetti and Meatballs.
