What Have You Cooked Recently?

How do you make your coconut rice, replace water with coconut tard cum? Too bad my family hates coconut, I love it.

anybody got any good ideas of something to make with ground beef that is NOT spaghetti? All we could find was a huge chub of cheap shit that I have to repurpose into edible dinners
We do tacos or tortillas using ground meat. We also grill hamburgers with it. But those are things you already have thought of. We are being adaptive with recipes so we may try using ground meat in my above mentioned 'sausage/ bacon, potatoes and egg concoction".bacon

You can also make cheeseburger macaroni.Yo

i wishe we had a bunch of ground meat now. I would be making dozens of tamales to freeze for future feasts.
 
Also not exactly a life hack but an oven with the light on is just the right temperature for rising dough.

Shepherd's pie, substituting the ground beef for ground lamb.

Also if you don't mind going white trash, there are a million different kinds of Hamburger Helper.

I have the masa too, but no corn husks

thanks all for the suggestions. I will probably go “homemade Hamburger Helper” on them and wait for the wailing and gnashing of teeth to commence

actually... that Shepherd’s Pie idea ain’t half bad, @AnOminous thanks for the idear

I made this tonight and didn’t even think to share it. Good luck finding a can of soup right now though.

I made jerk chicken. Wasn't authentic or anything, no scotch bonnet. Used a spice blend I found on allrecipes. Broiled it in the oven. Steamed kale on the side. I didn't cook it recently, but also served Jamaican-style rice and peas (rice and beans with coconut milk) leftovers I froze awhile ago.
 
I've been trying to make things that stretch out over a few days or that we can get a lot of leftovers out of. A quart of buttermilk feeds the fam biscuits for five nights. In these trying times I think that it's important to look back at the old recipes of our grandparent's days, so I busted out the old Betty Crocker Bisquick cookbook (featuring great classics such as "Apricot-Clove Spam Bake" and "Cheese-Covered Tuna Pancake Roll-Ups") and made a big pan of creamed chicken to go with my biscuits becasue if you don't eat them smothered and covered, you're a Communist. Basically you make gravy out of Bisquick, throw in some cooked chicken, and remember why your grandparents drank so much.

I made some oven cooked brisket the other night, I think it needed a little more time becasue it didn't shred as easily as it could but I didn't want to put it back in because I was hungry and wanted some goddamn brisket. It wasn't tough or anything though. Very tasty on rolls, and we've got enough to last another night or two.

I thought about the same and I stocked up on some butter, flour, cacao and dried fruit. With just these 4 I can make a variety of things like muffins, brownies, cakes. I can make it sweet with plenty if dried fruit, or hearty with a little or none.

Besides that I made garlic ginger onion greenbeans and rice with some ground beef tonight. Very tasty. Made enough to be able to eat it for lunch everyday next week.

"Cheese-Covered Tuna Pancake Roll-Ups " sounds good tbh. I have a lot of canned tuna and should start using some.
