This Beef Corn Noodle Casserole is very tasty and so easy to make! You wouldn’t think the ingredients would go together, but they really do.

 

In fact, they go together very well. The contrast of the sweet corn and salty olives is very nice!

This is an extremely easy meal to make, almost a homemade hamburger helper, and it’s so good.

Indian Tacos on Fry Bread – Outstanding!

I love Indian Tacos on Fry Bread for a change from regular tacos or burritos. It’s the fry bread that makes them special! I enjoy having them often.

 

Indian tacos, made with Indian fry bread, are popular attractions at most outdoor summer events in the southwest, including fairs, festivals, and most anything else where people gather.

They primarily consist of beans or ground beef, chopped lettuce, sliced tomato, shredded Cheddar cheese, and optional ingredients such as green chiles.

You can also top with salsa if desired.

It’s all served atop large rounds of crispy Indian fry bread. It’s the perfect fair fare! Just fill the taco, roll it up, and eat it!

People line up to wait their turn to buy freshly made Indian tacos. With this recipe, you can make your own. No need to wait in line!

What a treat to have such a delicious Ground Beef Dish and only one pot to wash!

Course: Main Course
Cuisine: American
Keyword: Ground Beef One Pot Meal
Servings: 6
Calories: 365 kcal
Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 28 ounce can tomatoes, crushed
  • 1 8 ounce package egg noodles
  • 1 fresh jalapeno optional
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder optional
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground basil
  • 1 teaspoon italian seasoning
  • 1 8 ounce box frozen corn kernels (or peas or green beans)
Instructions

  1. Place the ground beef in a pot that is large enough to hold all the ingredients and to cook the noodles with the other ingredients. Lightly cover the ground beef with salt, pepper, garlic, red pepper flakes, basil and Italian spice mix.

  2. Brown the ground beef.

  3. Cut the jalapeno length wise, remove seeds and white ribs. Mince the jalapeno - so no one gets a big chunk of jalapeno when they bite into the meal.

  4. After the meat is browned, add the jalapeno, tomato and 1 can of water to rinse out tomato can. Stir well. (Make sure the liquid is adequate to cook the noodles.) Cook this mixture for about 15 minutes to get the spices well mixed with the tomatoes.

  5. Add the frozen vegetable - bring up to boil. Then add the egg noodles - cook until tender, about 7 or 8 minutes after the mixture comes to boil after adding the noodles.

  6. When the noodles are cooked, cover and remove from heat. Allow the meal to sit for 5 - 10 minutes, covered and off heat.

 

Enjoy!

Classic Beef Tacos – Best Ground Beef Taco Recipe

These Classic Beef Tacos are wonderful for Taco Tuesday. This is the best ground beef taco recipe! A step back to the traditional taco.

 

No fish or pineapple in these tacos. Just good ground beef and seasonings.

The meat has a good tex/mex flavor. I like the way the spices go together. They blend well.

The mixture is a little dry when the tomato paste and spices are added but that’s intentional. When the taco is assembled everything is perfect!

I love tacos and this Classic Beef Taco recipe is my favorite.

Course: Main Course
Cuisine: Mexican
Keyword: Classic Beef Tacos
Servings: 6
Calories: 295 kcal
Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 onion diced
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons mild chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon cilantro
  • 12 corn tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded cheese
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1 tomato chopped
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • taco sauce
  • oil for frying
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oil on medium-hi. (Choose the pan for frying the shells carefully. It should be just a little bigger than the taco shells in diameter, and have straight sides so the minimum amount of oil can be used. It's easier to handle the shells if the pan is fairly shallow - no more than 3 inches deep.).
  2. In a separate pan, brown the onion with the meat and drain the grease.
  3. Add the tomato paste and spices. Continue to simmer meat while frying shells.
  4. Fry each tortilla quickly, less than a minute each, folding in the middle while frying. Drain on paper towels. Add more oil if needed. Shells should still be fairly soft.
  5. Fill the taco shells with ground beef mixture and serve.
  6. Cheese, lettuce, tomato, sour cream and taco sauce should be served with the tacos so that everyone can fix their own.

Lose Weight and Eat Great! – Low-Carb Meatloaf

Be sure to Like Foodgasm Recipes on Facebookand Foodgasm on Pinterest for more great recipes.

This is a great low-carb meatloaf for anybody that’s trying to lose weight. I found this recipe when I went on a lo-carb diet.

But it’s not just for weight loss. It’s really a great meatloaf.

The fact that it substitutes pork rinds for the bread crumbs is what gives it it’s low-carb qualities!

If you’re trying to lose weight the low-carb way then this should become your official meatloaf recipe.

Low-Carb Meatloaf

Ingredients

1 1⁄2 lbs ground beef (Or half ground beef & half ground pork)
1 cup pork rind, crumbs
1 egg
1⁄3 cup tomato sauce
1⁄2 teaspoon salt
1⁄2 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons parsley
1⁄2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1⁄4 cup chopped onion
1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix the meat and all the other ingredients. Shape into a firm oval loaf in a shallow baking pan and bake for 1 hour.

Makes 6 servings.

Total 11 carbs.

This is really good – very moist.

When you remove this meat loaf from the oven the baking pan will be full of fat. If you allow it to sit for a while it will soak most of it back up!

If you like your meatloaf a little drier drain off the fat right away.

Both ways are very good.

Taco Tuesday Taco Soup – Easy and Delicious

This Taco Tuesday Taco Soup is absolutely fabulous! A taco in a bowl. It’s also a versatile recipe. You can add veggies and not affect the overall taste.

 

You can also use shredded chicken rather than ground beef.

I’ve made it both ways and the chicken seems to get an edge from friends but I prefer the ground beef.

I make a big batch and freeze it in single servings for those nights when other plans fall through. It heats up well in the microwave.
