About a month ago, we decided to take charge of what we were eating. We decided that buying meats from the grocery store just wasn’t what we wanted for our family so we bought grass-fed beef from a local farmer. The thing is, when you buy beef like this, most of the time it’s in bulk and by bulk I mean, you have to find a freezer to store your 150 lbs of beef!
With 50 of that being ground beef, I needed ideas on how to use it beyond just spaghetti, tacos, and hamburgers! So, I’ve rounded up 33 absolutely delicious ground beef recipes for myself… and for you!

I love this recipe collection! It's a great way to stay creative about using ground beef! I find myself defaulting to spaghetti way too often, although I do love spaghetti.
