I make a lot of, what i like to call, homemade hamburger helper meals. The rice and pasta ones happen the most and are the least difficult. I have tried potatoes cut and sliced many ways before but the one that has worked out the best so far is below. GOOD LUCK!
1 lb ground turkey
4 russet med - large potatoes (1/2 diced)
8oz mushrooms (sliced)
1 medium onion (1/2 diced)
3 cloves garlic (diced)
garlic salt
fresh pepper
1.5 to 2 cups beef stock
2 tblspns butter
1/4 cup olive oil at most (thin layer in pan enough to brown potatoes)
I heated 1/8 cup of olive oil in a 5qt saute pan to temp of 350
brown the potatoes in 2 batches turning every couple minutes until you get desired crust/color
remove potatoes to paper towel to dry
add 1lb ground turkey brown before this i added extra 1/8 cup oil (all depends on fat % in meat)
leaving turkey in pan add onions and mushrooms cook until soft 5 minutes or so
add garlic and season with garlic salt and pepper cooking for 2 minutes
add beef stock, deglazing pan and scraping brown bits from pan
add potatoes stir
bring to a boil
turn heat down to simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until potatoes soft
add butter stir and serve
took one hour to make but this was the first time, going forward it should take 30 to 45 minutes
NOTES:
Ground beef really makes this dish pop!
1 cup of leftovers with 3-4 eggs makes a great scramble morning after
also, 1 cup of leftovers with 6 eggs and put it in a oven safe skillet will make an excellent fritata
everyone ate this dinner but with these exclusions
3yr old no onion or mushroom
2yr old no mushroom
