Ingredients

  • 1 lb Ground beef 80/20
  • 2 large Zuchinni and Squash or choose your favorite
  • 1 tbsp Worchestire sauce
  • 1 tsp Dried Basil or fresh
  • 2 tsp Dried Parsley
  • 1 tsp Dried Onion or Fresh or 1/4 cup fresh diced
  • 2 Scallion just green part
  • 1 tsp Smoked Paprika
  • Sea salt to taste
  • 1/2 tsp Optional Garlic fresh or ground dried garlic

Instructions

  • Begin by adding your ground beef to a skillet and add seasonings, salt, paprika, basil, parsley, sea salt, dried or fresh onion, and saute.
  • While that cooks, clean and chop your summer squash. I love using this Vegetable Slap Chop gadget. However, a cutting board and knife work just fine, this just makes things quicker!
  • When the ground beef has browned, add in your diced squash, (optional garlic), scallions, Worcestershire sauce, and sauté.
  • Cover with a lid and reduce heat to medium and allow to cook for 10-15 minutes.
  • Check after 8 minutes to stir and replace lid to continue to cook.
  • Once done add to a bowl and serve. We love to enjoy this meal with Gluten-Free Cornbread or Rolls
  • This will store in your fridge for 3 days.
