I'd taken ground beef out of the freezer intending to grill burgers tonight, but my son raided the buns for sandwiches earlier. 🙄 (Boy moms understand.) So, I threw this together as a last minute makeshift dinner with ingredients I had on hand. Easy, few ingredients, hearty and filling, feeds the whole family comfortably with leftovers to spare.

I have a huge family that includes teenage boys, so my recipes often are "fit for an army." I mostly cook using whole foods and enjoy teaching my kids how to cook and bake from scratch.
