What to Make When…Ground Beef
It's time for another version of "what to make when." Every several weeks ground beef, ground chuck and ground round will go on sale, ranging from $1.49/lb to $2.99/lb...depending on the type. I prefer ground chuck and stock up when it's on sale for $1.99/lb, but will also pick up ground beef when it hits the $1.49/lb sale mark. Ground round doesn't usually go on sale for … [Read more...]

When I hear some squealing from the room behind the kitchen...which houses my newly … [Read more...]
