Notes

Serve with steamed vegetables, a simple salad, or fresh bread to soak up the gravy. For added flavor, sauté onions and garlic before adding ground beef or add a cornstarch slurry for thicker gravy. You can substitute egg noodles with other pasta or mash potatoes for a twist. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days in the fridge or freeze for up to 3 months.
