Easy and quick ground beef recipes?

I need an easy and quick recipe for ground beef. Something basic that can be prepared (including prep work and cooking) in about 30 minutes' time. I have 1.5 pounds of ground beef, several types of shredded cheese, onions, potatoes, rice, all kinds of frozen vegetables. Anyone have any suggestions?

Ingredients


2-3/4 to 3-1/4 cups all-purpose flour


1 package active dry yeast


1/4 teaspoon salt


1 cup warm water (120 degree F to 130 degree F)


2 tablespoons cooking oil


1/2 pound ground beef and/or bulk Italian sausage or pork sausage


1 cup chopped onion


1 3-1/2-ounce package sliced pepperoni


1 cup cut-up Canadian-style bacon


1 cup chopped green sweet pepper


2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (8 ounces)


1/4 cup grated Parmesan or Romano cheese


3/4 cup chopped onion


2 cloves garlic, minced


1 tablespoon olive oil, margarine, or butter


1 14-1/2-ounce can tomatoes, cut up


1 8-ounce can tomato sauce


1 bay leaf


1 tablespoon snipped fresh basil or 1 teaspoon dried basil, crushed


1 tablespoon snipped fresh oregano or 1 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed


1 teaspoon fennel seed, crushed (optional)


1/2 teaspoon sugar


1/4 teaspoon pepper





Directions


1. Cook the 3/4 cup chopped onion and garlic in 1 tablespoon oil. Stir in tomatoes; tomato sauce; bay leaf; basil; oregano; fennel seed, if using; sugar; and pepper. Bring to boiling. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 35 to 40 minutes or to desired consistency, stirring occasionally. Discard bay leaf.





2. Meanwhile in a large bowl combine 1-1/4 cups of the flour, the yeast, and the salt. Add warm water and 2 tablespoons oil. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds, scraping bowl constantly. Beat on high speed for 3 minutes. Using a spoon, stir in as much of the remaining flour as you can. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic (6 to 8 minutes total). Divide dough in half. Cover and let rest 10 minutes.





3. Grease two 11- to 13-inch pizza pans or baking sheets. On a lightly floured surface roll each half of dough into a circle 1 inch larger than pizza pan. Transfer to pans. Build up edges slightly. Flute edges, if desired. Prick dough generously with a fork. Do not let rise. Bake in a 425 degree F oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned.





4. Meanwhile, in a large skillet cook ground beef and/or sausage and the 1 cup chopped onion until meat is brown and onion is tender. Drain fat. Spread pizza sauce over hot crusts. Sprinkle with beef mixture. Top with pepperoni, Canadian-style bacon, and green sweet pepper. Sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan or Romano cheese.





5. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes more or until cheese melts and sauce is bubbly. Makes 6 to 8 servings.





Make-Ahead Tips: Prepare pizza dough; divide into 2 equal portions. Place in plastic freezer bags. Seal, label, and freeze up to 1 month. Thaw overnight in refrigerator before using.

I'm a great groundbeef lover: lots to do with it





Gathered the groudnbeef-recipes on my site (about 40):

Brown your ground beef with 1 small onion. Drain and combine with a bag (1lb) of frozen mixed vegetables, 2 cans of cream of mushroom soup, 1-2cups of shredded cheese (your favorite kind), and pour into a 9 x 13 pan that has been sprayed with Pam or other cooking spray. Cover this with sliced or shredded potatoes, season with salt %26amp; pepper, and bake for 30-45 minutes @ 375 degrees F. Enjoy!
My family loves ';Porcupines';. Season your meat with a little salt pepper, throw in about a cup of uncooked rice, and a chopped up medium onion. Roll into little meatballs. Fry on the stove, you'll have to turn them a few times so they cook evenly. When they're all done, take them out and put a can of Cream of Mushroom soup in the leftover grease and make a gravy. You might want to add a little milk, to make it thinner. Put the meat balls back in the gravy and serve. Minute Rice works best, you'll have to cook longer if you use regular rice.
you can make tacos( but you will need to buy the tacos shells and packet of taco seasoning)or if you have some noodles around add them to the ground beef and toss in the cheese and even the veg's if you want... or with the rice and add some beans and chili seasoning.. or make a meat loaf just add some eggs and onions to the beef mixture and you can even put a layer of the shredded cheese inside if you like. or do the same thing but add some bread crumbs and make meatballs...or make a quick Salisbury steak, add eggs and onions to the beef form into patties and add some gravy after they are cooked or even cover them with mushroom soup( warmed up) you can fry or bake these things... which ever is easiest for you!
