GROUND BEEF AND BISCUIT RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 250°F. In large skillet, brown ground beef and onion over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes or until beef is thoroughly cooked, stirring frequently. Drain.
• Stir in chili powder, salt, garlic powder and tomato sauce. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place taco shells on ungreased cookie sheet. Heat at 250°F. for 5 minutes.
• To assemble tacos, layer beef mixture, cheese, lettuce and tomatoes in each taco shell. Serve with salsa; top with sour cream.

Steps:

• Spray 5-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. Break up beef; place on bottom and up sides of slow cooker.
• In large bowl, mix onions, beans, salsa and taco seasoning mix; place in center of slow cooker over beef. Cover; cook on Low heat setting 8 hours.
• Drain beef mixture through strainer set over large bowl. Press with spatula or wooden spoon to break up any large chunks of beef. Divide into 4 portions.
• Use 1 portion immediately to fill tacos, dividing evenly among taco shells; top with cheese, then add favorite taco toppings.
• Transfer remaining portions to pint-size freezer containers, and freeze up to 3 months. Use one portion in your Mexican recipes that call for 1 lb ground beef cooked with taco seasoning mix. Just thaw overnight in refrigerator or defrost in microwave before using. Microwave in microwavable container 2 to 3 minutes on High or until steaming before adding to recipes that call for hot ground beef.
