Hello, we were just given 50 lbs of ground beef from a rancher who is a dear friend. He said it is over 90 % lean.. We have the occasional burgers on the grill, but any ideas would be so appreciated. Trying to stay with something pretty low cal. Thanks so much..

    Manwich Bold, but my trick is to double the beef In the recipe and add cooked carrots and celery. I don't like soupy sloppy joes and this cuts the calories, sugar and salt. You can also make lettuce wrap tacos. Just season the beef and have your toppings ready and use butter lettuce as your wrap. You could also season the meat with Chinese five spice and make traditional Asian lettuce wraps. Also you could make wonderful meatloaf and serve it with mustard and chutney, or make tons of meatballs for Italian wedding soup. Or have it all turned into summer sausage and smoked.

    Stuffed green peppers! In fact, now I'm in the mood to make some. . . mine are hamburger, rice, and tomato sauce stuffed into blacked green peppers and then baked.
