I love this recipe...it's super easy to make too.

Bacon Cheeseburger Roll-Up

1 lb. lean ground beef
4 slices OSCAR MAYER Bacon, chopped
1/2 cup chopped onions (about 1 small)
1/2 lb. (8 oz.) VELVEETA Pasteurized Prepared Cheese Product, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 pkg. (13.8 oz.) refrigerated pizza crust



PREHEAT oven to 400°F. Cook ground beef, bacon and onions in large skillet on medium-high heat until ground beef is evenly browned, stirring occasionally. Drain; return meat mixture to skillet. Add VELVEETA; cook until completely melted, stirring frequently. Cool 10 min.
UNROLL pizza dough onto baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray. Press into 15x8-inch rectangle. Top evenly with meat mixture. Roll up dough, starting at one of the long sides. Rearrange, if necessary, so roll is seam-side down on baking sheet.
BAKE 20 to 25 min. or until golden brown. Cut diagonally into six slices to serve.

Answer 2

This is basically a healthy sloppy joe recipe. I am West Indian and love this. And you can add veggies without your kids knowing if you have them.

There isn't really a true recipe for this, but I will give you the basics. And you can alter it for your family's tastes.

Sautee up some diced veggies. Generally I use 1/2 pepper, 1 small onion and about 1/4 of a cabbage. Let all of these cook low until they are soft, but not brown. Then add 1 pack of ground beef. Let this cook until almost done, then add about 1/4 c. of ketchup and 1/2 c. of water. Let this simmer until the meat becomes thick. Make sure you season the veggies and the meat as you are cooking. I prefer adobo, but salt and pepper will do. I generally add a sprig of thyme to mine as well, but not necessary.

You can serve this on buns like you would a sloppy joe, on top of rice or my favorite, fried dumplings. There are a ton of fried dumpling recipes out there. Basically it's just self rising flour, a pinch of salt and water, but it takes a while to get right. Keep on practicing they are well worth the wait.

Here is one that I have made for about thirty years that is still a family favorite. It is a casserole called Chinese Hamburger. I have even made it for company with great success. I usually will add more soy sauce for extra flavor. And I toss in some sliced mushrooms

Chinese Hamburger Casserole
1 lb ground beef
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
1 cup water
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms or 1 (8 ounce) can mushrooms
1 cup sliced celery
1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup white rice
1 can chinese noodles, crisp

Brown meat in skillet.
Add remaining ingredients except noodles.
Stir well and pour into a 2 quart casserole.
Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
Uncover and bake another 30 minutes.
Sprinkle noodles over top and return to oven and bake an additional 10 or15 minutes.
Serves 8.

Answer 7

Fusion Chili:

"A true fusion of 'Tex' and 'Mex' style chili. I've made this recipe dozens of times, and it is great. Each bite slowly delivers a sweet flavor followed by dry heat afterwards. It takes a while to prepare, but well worth it. You can use any type of beans you like, and try different dried chile varieties."

INGREDIENTS
10 dried ancho chiles - chopped, stemmed and seeded
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
3 pounds hot Italian sausage, casings removed
3 pounds ground beef
1 white onion, diced
1 red onion, diced
1 sweet onion, diced
1 cup diced celery

1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
1 cup dry red wine
4 (14.5 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup hot pepper sauce
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1/2 cup honey
1 (16 ounce) can kidney beans, drained
1 (16 ounce) can pinto beans, drained
DIRECTIONS

In a large pot, Heat 3 to 4 tablespoons of the meat drippings over medium heat. Saute white onion, red onion, sweet onion, celery, carrots and garlic until onions are soft and translucent.

My families favorite is: Moms Sweet & Sour Meatloaf Sauce: 2 small cans tomato sauce 1/4 cup worchestershire sauce 1/2 onion chopped 1 tablespoon dried parsley 1/2 cup brown sugar Mix all sauce ingredients together in bowl, set aside. Ingredients (Meatloaf): 2 pounds ground beef 1/2 chopped onion 1 egg, beaten 1/2 cup or more if needed, quick oatmeal (not instant) 1 teaspoon garlic salt In another bowl add ground beef, 1/2 chopped onion, egg, oatmeal, garlic salt, pepper, and 1/3 of the sauce mixture. Mix together well. Place in pan, making space between meat and pan around edges with fingers. Flatten top, spread more sauce over top and cook 1 hour, at 350F. Drain off grease half way (30 min) and add more sauce. Reserve some sauce for adding when served. The oatmeal disappears, is healthy and you can't taste it. It just holds it together better. Add more if you need it.
