Spice It Up: Ground Beef

How many pounds of ground beef does your family go through in a month? Sometimes it feels as though you could do your grocery shopping trip with your eyes closed because you are getting the same ingredients for your dinners over and over. Ground beef is a common base used for dinner and is versatile meat; however, the frequent use of the same meat might make it taste bland and boring, even if you are switching up the dinners themselves. If the flavor is lacking in your main component, the overall dish will be too. Adding the right seasoning can be a simple yet life-changing solution. Making sure the flavors in your meat stand out so that the dish is appealing is crucial to making dinner an enjoyable experience for all!
