A few of the dishes included in this round-up might have a different type of meat but surprise – you can substitute to your liking with ground beef and it’s going to taste incredible. I can’t wait to hear which recipe you are most excited about!

Empanadas
Instead of just showing you tacos, I wanted to also share a different way to enjoy ground beef. This recipe has beef cheek meat, but you can totally use hamburger meat, shredded chicken, ground turkey, even jackfruit for vegans! And yes, they will be just as delicious!
Breakfast Tacos
No one says sausage can’t be ground! But actually I’ve used leftover ground beef and added it to my morning eggs for extra protein. Add it to your eggs for delicious, hearty and filling breakfast tacos! This looks so tasty!
Baked Mini Taco Salads
Ground turkey was the star in this Baked Mini-Taco Salads recipe. Serve the mini taco salads with sliced avocado, rice or corn for a delicious dish or serve them alone as a great appetizer to share.

Veggies, sprouts and throw some seasoned ground beef or turkey in there to make it even heartier!
