Ingredients
  • 1 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 Tbs. garlic powder
  • 2 Tbs. dried parsley
  • 1/3 cup instant onion
  • 3 Tbs. onion powder
  • 1 Tbs. salt
  • 1 2/3 cup dry milk
  • 3 1/2 Tbs. beef bouillon
  • Mix this all up and store in a glass jar or other sealed container.
  • Use 1/2 cup for each pound of ground meat.
  • Basic recipe
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 cup of mix (above)
  • 1 to 2 cups noodles (elbow macaroni for example)
  • 1 1/2 to 3 cups water

Directions
  1. Brown and drain the ground beef.
  2. Stir in the dry mix, then add 2 cups hot water and 2 cups noodles. You can add more or less water and noodles, proportionately, depending on much you need to stretch that pound of beef.
  3. Bring to a boil, then turn down to a simmer, cover, and cook until noodles are tender, about 20 minutes.
  4. Cheeseburger skillet: add 1 cup dehydrated cheese with the dry mix. Or cook as above, then stir in 2 cups grated Cheddar or Colby cheese before serving.
  5. Stroganoff: add a bit of 1/2 tsp of onion powder and 1/2 tsp celery salt with the dry mix. Stir in a 1/2 cup fresh or canned mushrooms. After cooking noodles, stir in 1/4 cup sour cream just before serving.
  6. Chili: Add one 14.5 oz can diced tomatoes, 1 Tbs chili powder.
  7. Potato variation: Instead of macaroni, add 2-3 cups very thinly sliced potatoes. Simmer 20-30 minutes until potatoes are tender. Uncover and simmer until liquid has evaporated.
